It is common to see a wasp during the summer. A single wasp in your home or garden is harmless unless, of course, you agitate it! However, when wasps nest in your roof or garden, it can be distressing for you and your family. You should never try and disturb or treat a wasp\u2019s nest by yourself because once the wasp feels threatened, it may retaliate and sting you, which can be extremely painful. If you identify a wasp in your home or business, seek professional wasp removal services. Our friendly technicians have the skills and experience to remove wasps nests rapidly and effectively. Once our technicians have treated the nest, it will take a maximum of four hours to eradicate. If you identify any further activity after the treatment, we will revisit your property free of charge to complete an additional treatment.

Wasps nests in ceiling spaces can present a fire risk, mainly if they are near spotlights. In some properties, multiple nests can be mistaken for a single nest, especially on roof spaces. Finally, there is always a risk that a wasp may sting you numerous times. If you are allergic to the sting, this may result in anaphylaxis, rare but potentially life-threatening.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p> Facts: <\/b>Wasps\u00a0<\/span><\/p> Yes, wasps can sting multiple times, which can be painful.
