Introduction

The average wasp nest in the UK houses a colony of a few hundred wasps. And the longer you let the wasp nest thrive, the bigger your wasp problem will get. It's not uncommon for some wasp nests to house over a thousand wasps, which can become a serious problem for residents and commercial businesses. Fortunately, our wasp control services are always at hand, so if you need nest removal in Maidstone, we're just a phone call away.

Most Common Signs There's a Wasp Nest Close By

The best way to know you have a nest on your property is to see a good chunk of it or see it in its entirety. This is often possible if the wasp nest is situated on a tree branch or is hanging from the roof of your property.

Unfortunately, most species of wasps in the UK prefer to nest in more hidden places such as your attic, inside the walls of your property, and even underground. This is mostly due to the harsh weather conditions in the UK during the colder months of the year. As a result property owners without experience in dealing with wasps can find it tricky to determine if there is a wasp nest nearby. In such case, we recommend you look and listen out for the following signs:

  • Chewed wood (fences, elements in your property, and more)
  • A constant buzzing sound coming from one direction
  • You constantly have to deal with a large number of wasps all the time

Why Removing Wasp Nests is Always the Right Thing to Do

Having wasps around your property can be beneficial. They are great at keeping the population of caterpillars and other insects in your garden at bay. However, in the large majority of cases, wasps cause more harm than good. Some examples include:

  • Damage to the structure of your property (they will chew all wooden elements of your property to gather resources for their nest)
  • Increased risk of getting stung or attacked by wasps
  • They will displace most insects in the area, including bees
  • Certain species of wasps are very aggressive and will attack in numbers without a reason
