Wasps (Vespula Vulgaris)

waspThe number of wasp nests can vary from year to year. The reason for this is not known, but it appears to be connected to the climate in the early part of the year.  If we have a particularly cold start to the year then we don’t usually have the same volume of nests in the Summer months.

The treatment of a wasp nest is very dangerous and should only be attempted  by professionals who have the proper protective clothing and equipment, even then it can still be dangerous. You are strongly advised to consult a private pest control company if you have a wasp nest near your 
                               property.
