Wasps don't swarm like bees, there will be a nest somewhere if your seeing that many

 

thanks , will let you know how i get on, had 2 wacks off them , be glad to see the back of them. do they serve a purpose as such ,/ i know bees are very important , watched a program about bees if they disappear , it would affect us getting food etc .

Wasps are very good for gardeners as they eat a huge number of insects at this time of year. Did 9 nests today with biggest about the size of a honeydew melon.

Hi Dido that figure is the running total for everyone on the forum who decides to keep it up to date. Todays figure is around 304 but remember thats for everyone not individuals

 

Most people are saying its a slow start.

 

Yeah I worked that out eventually....I'm always slow on the uptake ?
