So, how do you get rid of a wasps nest? The photo Rolfe put up is the first wasps nest I've seen would you believe. Mind you I don't go looking for the little b*****ds. We used to have lots of ivy on a wall and old shed at the back of the house. You couldn't open the windows in summer

Had a terrier disturb one 2 weeks before Christmas last year while checking an earth. They started to swarm but it was just a case of going across the field and calling the terrier after she'd checked the empty earth.

Was wondering whats the best solution if the nest is in a shed/attic etc ?

I always wondered in what way does the wasp fit into the eco-system/food chain?

Wasp nests are easily treated with a 1% bendiocarb powder injected into the nest via a pressure duster and a lance.

On an average year i will treat upwards of 350 nests in various locations, from holes in the ground, hanging in shrubs or holes in walls etc..........the majority though will be in roof spaces .

Here's a wasp nest i found.............in a roof space...........but in a crash helmet on the floor......bit different i suppose.
