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!!

Cheers

John, you could try RAID spray. Stand back and know where you will run
to take cover! I had one under the front bedroom floor and was mad enough
to lift the floorboards and poke at the nest. I had hornets and they went
absolutely wild. The noise was terrible and I had to put the boards down
fast! After a few hours I sprayed RAID in the nest and around the entrance.
The never returned. The nest was about 3ft long and wrapped around
heating pipes. It was amazing to see the way it was built.
You can sometimes get your local council to call as they have a service.
You
pay them far less than private companies.
