Default Wasps Nest

I have noticed a lot of wasps around my house recently and today I went on
a hunt! I noticed wasps going in and out of a ground floor airbrick so
presumably that's where the nest is. I was giong to ring a 'wasp trouble'
man but then thought "how will he remove it?" Assuming he will not
demolish my wall or lift my living room floor up I presume he will treat
the entrance (airbrick) with something. Before I pay said man £50(?) to do
this is there any point in me buying these foam or powder destroyers that
are available. If I can do the same as the man would but at a fraction of
the cost I will. The activity of the wasps isn't causing us any problems
but I would just like rid of the little b**gers!!



Unless they are actually causing you or your family a problem then leave
them alone. They eat a lot of garden pests. If you really must deal with
them then the power or foam sprays work well but make sure you follow the
instructions carefully.
