ratattack 111 Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Almost every job I go to for wasps or hornets is at least 2 nests, 6 is the most in one house so far. 10-15 calls a day and no chance to do the routine stuff! Crazy numbers this year in the SW. lots of variation in nest stages of development too from huge medicine ball sizes to grapefruit sized ones. Did hornets in a shed which was just combs and no outer shell in place yet. Quote Link to post

Pirate 9000 676 Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 Dido haven't done half that amount, but has suited me this year, because of the amount of contract work which for me pays the bills, hope you're season continues with good number's. 1 Quote Link to post

Torquemada 288 Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Looks like a hornets nest? Quote Link to post
LuckOrJudgement 437 Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 From another angle - looks like a gorila staring out of the yew. It was a wasp nest. The entrance is the 'mouth' Quote Link to post
DIDO.1 22,650 Posted October 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2018 Did two nests yesterday....felt strange putting dust stick in a frosted up van. One of the nests was quite active, the other just a removal of a more or less dead nest, few still in it though Quote Link to post
