Protect Your Home Or Business With Professional Wasp Nest Treatment

Wasps are one of the most frightening and dangerous insect pests you can face. Once wasps build nests, there will be multiple wasps flying around, and they can become aggressive when disturbed.

During summer, wasp nests can double in size every week, so it’s vital that you act quickly if you notice signs of a wasp problem. Leaving the nest to die off isn’t an option either, as wasps never use the same nest twice, and will hibernate during the winter and then build a new nest in the spring.

Why You Should Never Try DIY Wasp Nest Removal

As much as it might seem cost-effective to tackle a wasp nest yourself, it’s vital that you work with a pest control expert like Acorn. That’s because wasps can become incredibly aggressive, especially when they think you’re a threat. The wasp colony is dedicated to protecting the queen wasp, so if you go near the nest where she is, then they may feel threatened and start stinging.

Unlike bees, wasps can sting throughout their lives without dying, and their stings can be incredibly painful. If you’re allergic to wasps, then you could get seriously hurt and go into anaphylaxis. Even if you’re not allergic to wasp stings, you could still get painful bumps on your skin that can be itchy and uncomfortable.

How Acorn Removes Wasp Nests Across Norfolk And Norwich

At Acorn, we carry out a specific process when removing a wasp nest. Our aim is to ensure the entire wasp colony is removed and get rid of any nests in the area. Our wasp nest treatment process involves:

  • Investigation: When we arrive at the property, the first thing we will do is check the area to see how many nests there are. Because wasps look similar to bees and hornets, they are often mistaken for these insects, and while we can provide support for both, they require a different process.
  • Wasp Removal: Once we know we’re dealing with a wasp infestation, we will remove the wasps. All of our team wear protective clothing throughout this process to ensure their safety as we get rid of the wasps.
  • Nest Disposal: After the wasps are gone, we will take down the nest. If there are old, inactive nests in the area, we will also get rid of these and dispose of them safely.
  • Reporting: Our team aim to leave the area tidy and will then provide you with a full report and expert advice on how to ensure the wasps can’t return.
