If neglected, an active wasp nest can lead to a lot of trouble, ranging from causing you a life-threatening allergic reaction to completely destroying the structural integrity of your property. So, if you know that you have a wasp nest on your property or suspect that there may be one - don't wait until it's too late.
Staying safe with an active wasp nest on your property can be quite tricky, especially if it's situated in close proximity to an area that you regularly walk past. Our first and best bit of advice would be to stay as far away from the nest and the wasps as possible. This is because some vespula vulgaris (also known as the common wasp) species attack without feeling threatened.
We know that keeping your distance isn't always possible, so if that's the case for you, we advise you to go to your local supermarket and find the strongest insect-repellent spray you can find. We also recommend that you wear thick and long-sleeve clothing when possible. That way, wasps will have a more difficult time stinging you.
We take great pride in the fact that our pest control services are 100% humane and safe for everyone involved, including your pets and other insects that live on your property such as bees. The reason for that is because rather than using harmful chemicals, we rely on our hands and tools to remove the nest and its inhabitants.
The exact process will vary from nest to nest, as some wasps nest out in the open, while others nest underground or even in your attic space or cavity wall. Following our initial inspection, our wasp removal specialists on the day will be able to give you a better idea of the exact steps they plan on taking.
