Why you should not tackle a wasp nest yourself
Aerosol cans do not reach the core of a loft nest, and the first spray often brings workers out towards you. Falls, stings and incomplete treatment are the usual result.
Access
Many nests sit in soffits, cavity walls or roof voids. Reaching them needs the right ladder, dust or foam, and a way out.
Protective kit
A veil and gloves are not optional if you are standing in the flight line. Householders rarely have that kit.
Incomplete jobs
Killing the wasps you see leaves brood in the comb. Activity can restart. A technician treats the nest, not the air around it.
If you have already sprayed
Stay away from the entrance and call. Tell us what you used so we know what we are walking into.
