Wasp Nest Control
Wasps are an asset to the environment as they control other small pests. However, we know they can be a nuisance and potentially dangerous to some people and pets.
At PGM we always look at ways to resolve the problem both for the client, their family and in consideration of the wider environment.
The Wasp
Common wasp, German wasp (Vespula Vulgaris / Vespula Germanica).
Habitat
You may find nests in the following areas:
Roof spaces
Wall cavities
Trees
Nests are formed of paper (chewed wood) and the sizes vary
In this video you'll see a queen wasp building her nest.
Colonies will survive one season in the UK.
Weather depending, a new nest starts around Spring by the overwintered Queen.
Wasps may be aggressive is threatened.
Some people are allergic to wasp stings and they can be fatal.
Breeding
The cycle is: egg, larvae, pupa, adult

The larvae are legless grubs and they develop in 4 weeks
The pupae develop in 2 weeks
Wasp Identification

Wasp Control Measures
They are relatively easy to control with sprays and dust applicators
Safety clothing should be worn when treating a wasp nest, especially in an enclosed location
At PGM and Son we see a lot of problems with wasps in Herefordshire & Worcestershire and surrounding areas. Wasps can inflict a painful sting and in some rare cases a single sting can induce anaphylactic shock – an extreme reaction to the toxins in the wasps venom.
