Introduction

If you have a wasp nest on your property and you're wondering whether to take action against it, the answer is always a resounding yes. When left alone, an active wasp nest can go from hosting 100 bees to over a thousand in the space of a few weeks. And the more wasps there are, the bigger your wasp problem will get.

The Dangers of Neglecting an Active Wasp Nest

Many residential and commercial property owners in Dorking have never dealt with a wasp infestation in the past. And because of that, they don't understand the true dangers of having a thriving nest near the place where you live or work.

When out of control, a wasp nest can be home to thousands of wasps that will do you (or your customers) no good. Below, we will go over some of the consequences you may have to suffer if you let the nest on your property just be.

  • As wasps are a very dominant species, any insects including bees will be displaced over time.
  • The wasps can chew away the wooden elements that play an important role in the structural integrity of your property, costing you thousands to repair.
  • The risk of you or anyone else around (including your pets) getting stung will increase each week as the population of wasps continues to grow.
  • A single sting from a wasp can be fatal for people and pets that are allergic to them.
  • They can disrupt your business operations and lead to a loss of revenue.

Most Common Signs That Indicate You Have a Wasp Nest Nearby

Fortunately, there are plenty of ways you can tell if there is a wasp nest inside or nearby your property. We always tell our customers to look and listen out for:

  • A noticeable or barely noticeable buzzing sound coming from one particular area
  • Increased wasp activity in the area since a few weeks ago
  • Wasps flying in and out of the same place
  • Signs of chewed wood
  • You can clearly see the wasp nest hanging from a tree or your property

If you notice any of these signs, it's best to contact a wasp nest removal service provider who can help you address the wasp problem before it gets out of control.

Yes, removing a wasp nest and its inhabitants is completely legal in the UK. The British Pest Control Association (BPCA) has not given official guidelines on the best and most humane way of doing so, meaning wasps can be removed in whatever way you or the specialist you hire finds suitable. When working with us, we will make sure your wasp problem is not only 100% resolved but that we resolve it in the most humane way possible.

Yes, there are plenty of natural remedies you can try out that will make your property less desirable for wasps in the future. Our favorites include hanging or replacing existing wasp nests with fake ones. As wasps are very territorial species, they will think the area is already occupied by another colony.

If you have a garden, you can take your preventative measures one step further by planting plants in the likes of mint, thyme, and eucalyptus. They are known to have insect-repellent properties, and wasps hate them.

If your case of wasp infestation allows you to safely watch from a distance, you absolutely can. The only time we advise against this is if the wasp problem is in an enclosed area such as your attic space.
