Additional Information
 

Wasps - Tree wasp, Dolichovespula spp

To solve your Wasp problem now! call us on 0800 0567 231.

Adult worker wasps are between 15 - 20 mm long, they have a black and yellow "striped" colouring of the abdomen with a black head and thorax.

Wasps are colonial creatures and live in large social groups. The colony is established by a queen in spring and tends to grow rapidly from that point. Many thousands of wasps can reside in a single nest / among a single colony, living on sweet-materials and flower-nectar.

Toward the end of the summer, the colony develops males to mate with the queens and restart the colonising process. Dolichovespula spp usually produce grey aerial nests, which have a regular laminar construction. They may be suspended from trees, bee hives, nest boxes, dormer windows and rafters. If nests are formed underground, the envelope is always visible.
 
When present in large numbers (which is often the case), and if the nest is located where human contact is possible, wasps can inflict painful (and potentially very dangerous) stings.

During the survey, your pest-control technician will carry out a "risk-assessment" which is basically our way of checking for any hazards on the property / area. We will provide you, where possible, with advice for preventing wasps e.g. highlighting any factors that can improve the situation, such as: proofing and nest removal, etc.
 
Our technicians are always suitably equipped to handle virtually any problem that may be encountered. Our knowledgeable pest-controllers are experienced in the living patterns/ nests of wasps and are very able to detect signs of them where present. These signs may include:

  • Nests
  • Damage
  • Wasps themselves (alive or dead)
