Rolfe 2 Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 I had a really busy day treating wasp nests today........this one was number 10. Client reported wasps going into a garden shed........and i expected to find one hanging up. After a bit of searching i located it.........it was inside a plastic childs cooker ..........good job the kids never opened the oven door..........bugger did they come at me. The picture shows the nest insitu and after i took it out of the oven.........! Quote Link to post

Wanna be farmer 0 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I went into the shed yesterday to get some conservatory furniture out to be sold, the two wicker chairs with the cushions were stacked on top of each other, i took the top chair off, and there was a massive hole in the cushion with a massive nest in, i think i ran the fastest i had ever ran yesterday. But it suprised me that they had eaten into the cushion. Quote Link to post

Wanna be farmer 0 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 you sure mice had'ent eaten the hole, and wasp's moved in after I'm pretty sure it was the wasps mate, i haven't seen any mice droppings in there. I would of put some pictures up if we hadn't have thrown them out. Quote Link to post
