You are the master, we shall all bow down to you o great one......db said:thanks for the info, but i ended up taking matters into my own hands!tijuanalady said:Call my sister Karen on 01785 604866 - she does pest control and is cheaper than the council. She charges £35 for wasps nests.
i went to B&Q and bought a can of Wasp Killer, and a can of Wasp Nest Destroyer.. armed with these, my sister and i operated a pincer formation to gain access to the shed and prop the door open, subduing the first wave of their defense with the Wasp Killer.. this exposed the nest inside, and aggravated the little buggers no end, so we retreated inside to plan our attack..
once the buzzing frenzy had died down, i carefully positioned myself within range, and unleashed the fury!!! a direct hit with the Wasp Nest Destroyer from a distance of 2m - the whole nest was encased and the air filled with the sound of a billion dying wasps! AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA TAKE THAT, NATURE!!
many find themselves in that position.. now cup the balls and hum the national anthem, there's a good boy..basil said:You are the master, we shall all bow down to you o great one......db said:thanks for the info, but i ended up taking matters into my own hands!

B&Q's Wasp Nest Killer Powder has been very effective when I've used it. About three quid for lots of powder, far more than one nest will require. It can sometimes be necessary to extend the range by using something like a BiC pen tube..The council are a rip off now, £25 consultation! Plus £55 to kill a nest. Anyone know an independent offering a cheaper service?

Perhaps not ideal if they're in the attic, for example..?1 litre of unleaded (super unleaded not necessary), and a lighted match?

Do it on a cool evening when they're a bit quieter, of course...
Having a 2 litre bottle of Evian to hand might help to counter any unwanted 'side-effect'.Perhaps not ideal if they're in the attic, for example..?
Similar technology was once proposed in order to deal with db's house martin infestation - http://www.staffordforum.com/xf/ind...to-break-into-my-house.4178/page-3#post-80105Having a 2 litre bottle of Evian to hand might help to counter any unwanted 'side-effect'.
I'd be interested to see how it would work out. In someone else's attic, of course.
That's the posh way of doing it. My way is more geared up for the common man.Similar technology was once proposed in order to deal with db's house martin infestation - http://www.staffordforum.com/xf/ind...to-break-into-my-house.4178/page-3#post-80105
Common man? Dear Lord! Isn't there a Cannock Forum you could go to?That's the posh way of doing it. My way is more geared up for the common man.
