Wasp nests are a danger as well as a nuisance. They can sting even when they’re not provoked. This means it is important to understand how to effectively remove a nest. Each year, pest controllers get many call-outs to treat a wasp problem.
This month’s blog at Critters Pest Control Services looks at wasp nest removal. For more information, call us in Cambridge on 01954 202 477.

Why We Control Wasps
These critters are one of Britain’s most feared pests. Wasps are well-known for their stings and aggressive behaviour. Not only are these stings painful, but they can also be fatal. If you are sensitive to wasp stings, they can send you into anaphylaxis. Therefore, it is important that wasp nests are dealt with as soon as possible.
A single nest can hold up to 3,000 wasps and bigger ones have been found with up to 10,000.

Signs of a Nest
If you are seeing a large number of wasps in and around your property, there is more than likely a nest nearby. These come in many different shapes and sizes and are likely to make nests in sheltered spots, like:
- Under Trees
- In Bushes
- In Sheds
- In Lofts
- Under Eaves
The earlier you treat wasps, the less aggressive their colony is.

Preventing Wasps
There are a number of things you can do to prevent wasps from invading your property. Keep your property secure by keeping your windows and doors closed. This will stop the pests from flying into the house. Additionally, fly screens can also help stop them from getting in.
Open bins will attract wasps. Ensure that your bin lid is closed and fully closed so they are not attracted to the contents. Another way to deter wasps is to remove vacant nests. Make sure you knock empty nests down.
