Wasp Nest Removal Bovey Tracey

Wasp Nest Removal Bovey Tracey Devon (TQ13): As first springtime and then summer arrives in Bovey Tracey, we all like to spend much more time outside in the open air. Sadly, this coincides with increased insect activity and it's likely that we'll see more hornets and wasps around our homes and gardens. Wasps in general aren't that much of a problem for many people in Bovey Tracey, and their benefits far exceed the risk of getting stung in most cases. But when a swarm decides to build a nest in your shed eaves, loft or in a garden hedge or tree, something must be done.

If a wasp nest is caught early on it can be treated with over the counter products by yourself, however on account of the location of some wasp nests in inaccessible areas it's usually wiser to call on a professional. On no account should you squirt a wasps nest with a can of insect killer or attempt to knock it down or poke it. This form of action will just enrage the insects, and make them more prone to sting the first thing they see - in other words you! Wasps tend to be even more aggressive when something comes in close proximity to their nests, and there may be a hundred or more wasps inside even a small nest.

CAN WASPS NESTS DAMAGE PROPERTY?

A knowledgeable pest control company can identify the sort of wasp and verify if it poses a possible threat to your family or your property in Bovey Tracey. Damage to roof timbers and joists is quite possible if you've got a certain type of wasp which chews on timber to make wood-pulp for its nests. Although this is not a safety threat for the forseeable future, it can cause problems that will have to be rectified down the line.

It is advisable not to block up a hole if you notice it's a clear exit and entry point for wasps. Blocking the entryway to an active nest will just cause the wasps on the outside to search for another way in, and those on the inside to search for another way out. This could result in damage to other areas of your house as the wasps create another hole to gain access to their nest. A certified wasps nest removal service in Bovey Tracey will minimise the possibility of any more structural damage, by uncovering the nest and safely removing it. Once the nest has been eliminated you will then be able to repair and stop up any holes you can find.

WHAT TYPES OF WASPS ARE THERE?

We'll be looking at the 2 main varieties here i.e. "Solitary Wasps" and "Social Wasps", though there are in reality thousands of different species of wasp in the UK.

Solitary Wasps: Only responsible for building smallish nests, or using crevices left in timber and in the ground, solitary wasps, as their name suggests are loners. Having a mainly beneficial impact around your garden, by eating ubiquitous garden pests such as aphids, caterpillars and greenfly, solitary wasps are almost never noticed by most people in Bovey Tracey.

Social Wasps: Social wasps are the ones that can be seen building substantial nests and sometimes swarming by the 1000 in Bovey Tracey. Such really large nests can be something of a problem as they develop, and may even make a property a no-go area until appropriately treated. If you've got pets or children, the nests of social wasps can create an immediate and grave threat that should be dealt with professionally.

WHAT ARE THE POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS FOR REMOVING WASP NESTS IN BOVEY TRACEY?

If you're not actually being bothered by the wasps, and the nest isn't large, it can generally be left alone and watched for the time being. As soon as the summer life cycle is complete, wasps will never reuse an old nest. During the autumn there'll be a noticeable reduction in the number of wasps, and through the winter season the whole colony (apart from new queens) will die, never to return to that nest. This doesn't mean that you won't get a wasp nest in the exact same spot, just that if they do return, they will build a whole new nest and not reuse the discarded one. An old wasp nest doesn't rot or decay since it's made from a cellulose material, which means that it can be left in place and won't cause any additional issues.

It's advised to hire a competent Bovey Tracey pest control company to neutralise and remove it, if the nest is massive and the wasps are creating an issue for you and your household. Well prepared for every scenario and having the most appropriate PPE (personal protective equipment), an established wasp nest removal service will keep you and your loved ones safe. While the process is being undertaken, and depending on the severity of the wasp dilemma, it may be necessary for you to leave your home for a while. Activity by any person in close proximity to a wasp nest is always going to be met with hostile behaviour, as the wasps attempt to safeguard the queen, and you must always bear that in mind.

Their first priority is to determine the species of wasp that is present and track down the main nest and all entrances to it. And since there might be more than one solitary nest on the premises, this means a full site survey being conducted. Popular places where wasps can build nests in Bovey Tracey are eaves, lofts, wall cavities and tree stumps. This means that in most instances your wasp removal specialists will be working at height on a ladder, and is yet another reason for getting expert help.

A suitable residual pesticide will be applied once the wasps nest has been detected. Based upon the type, location and size of nest, this may be in the shape of a dust or spray. Multiple applications of the pesticide could be neccessary to ensure that the nest nest is completely eliminated. Until all of the outlying wasps have arrived back at their nest and been exposed to the pesticide, no more measures should be taken. 24 hours after the treatment there should be little or no activity to and from the nest, and wasp nest removal process can be completed any time between 48 hrs and a month after the treatment, ensuring that all the wasps have been killed off.

If there is a wasp problem in a home which has been left empty for some time, the wasp nests might have spread into other living spaces, areas and rooms, in which case an entire house fumigation treatment might be required.

WHAT DANGERS ARE THERE FROM WASPS IN BOVEY TRACEY?

Around 0.5% of UK people could suffer from anaphylaxis shock from a bee or wasp sting and according to figures provided by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence, this number is slowly rising. Carried out between the years 1998 and 2012 there was a twenty one year study whereby in England and Wales there were 2688 hospital admissions because of wasp stings, and out of these, 93 were fatal. The risk is much higher in those over 60 and the very young, however anybody who has a previous history of intolerance to wasp venom can suffer a life-threatening sting from a single wasp.

HOW CAN I PREVENT WASPS NESTS ON MY PROPERTY IN BOVEY TRACEY?

You local Bovey Tracey wasps nest removal service will be delighted to offer you guidance on the preventive measures that you could take to stop wasps from nesting in your home or garden.

The fact that typically wasps prefer to establish their nests in dark, sheltered locations away from rain and wind, is a factor that's always worth keeping in mind. That is why areas such as eaves, roof voids and attics are commonly picked out as nesting sites. Check for any gaps or damage and seal them up whenever feasible. Fine steel mesh could be used to cover up vents, chimneys, soffits and air bricks. Putting in a small, low-wattage light or even a window in your attic can discourage wasps since they prefer the dark. Brushing timber sheds and outbuildings with creosote, stain or insect repellent to discourage them from entering.

Wasp-Proofing a Property

It is important to wasp proof a property in order to establish a safe and comfortable environment. Sealing any gaps or cracks in walls, doors and windows is a must if you want to keep wasps out of your property. To prevent wasps from entering, mesh screens should be fitted to vents and windows. Clear away potential nesting sites, for example piles of debris or timber. Wasps are attracted to garbage, so keep outside waste bins tightly closed. Wasps are attracted to sugary foods and drinks, so avoid leaving them uncovered. Place wasp decoys and traps away from common areas.

Eucalyptus or mint are natural wasp repellents, so consider planting them around your property. By frequently inspecting your property for indications of wasp activity and promptly addressing any nests if required, you can effectively control wasp presence. Wasp safety precautions should be communicated to all residents and occupants, emphasizing remaining calm and still when encountering a wasp, and knowing how to react to stings. Maintaining a wasp-free and secure environment heavily relies on awareness and knowledge. (68391 - Wasp-Proofing Bovey Tracey)
