Professional Wasp Nest Removals
While it may be tempting, we strongly advise against DIY wasp removal. In fact, we highly recommend keeping a good distance between yourself and any active wasp nests in your home. DIY wasp nest removals place you and your families at serious risk of being stung.
Disturbing an active nest will only make the wasps inside angry, and once they feel threatened, wasps will sting as many times as possible to protect their hive. Wasp stings are incredibly painful and can become deadly depending on the individual.
In severe cases, allergic reactions to wasp stings can develop into an anaphylactic shock. This severe reaction can cause swelling of the face and throat, hives and itching, breathing difficulties, dizziness and vomiting. Anyone suffering from an anaphylactic shock must seek medical attention immediately.
Unfortunately, you won’t know if you’re allergic until it’s too late. So, please leave wasp control to the professionals! At Vermicure, our technicians are equipped with the appropriate safety equipment and PPE designed to protect them from such injuries.
We’ve carried out hundreds of successful wasp nest removals at homes and businesses across West Yorkshire, including areas like Castleford, Wakefield, Pontefract and Leeds. Our Facebook page is full of recent wasp control videos and case studies – check it out using the link below.

Signs of a Wasp Infestation
The first step in dealing with a pest problem is correctly identifying the type of pest causing you problems. Waps tend to build their nests in hard-to-reach, secluded areas of properties, meaning you may not notice them with your own eyes. Instead, you can look out for the following telltale signs of a wasp infestation:
Noise
Wasps make a lot of noise as they come and go from the nest multiple times daily. The distinctive buzzing noise is often the most common way our customers discover their wasp problem. The noise is often heard during the early hours of the morning when other noises are at a minimum.
If you haven’t seen any wasps or a wasps nest with your own eyes, but you’re repeatedly hearing a continuous buzzing noise, the wasp nest may be in an awkward, hard-to-reach location on your property. If possible, try to pinpoint the location of the buzzing – without getting too close.
Nests
Finding a nest on your property is probably the most obvious sign of a wasp problem. However, wasps are very crafty about where they decide to build their nests, choosing difficult-to-reach places where they won’t be disturbed or attacked. Common locations include the loft, inside walls, or garden sheds, but we’ve seen wasp nests in crazy locations, including a bird box, an air vent, under roof tiles, and bushes.
Wasp nests are relatively distinctive and easy to identify. Their size can vary hugely depending on the size of the swarm inside and how long the nest has been active. They are a light grey or brown colour, which many describe as looking like textured, old paper. If you do discover a wasp nest somewhere on your property, please keep your distance to avoid injury.
Swarms
Wasps are active insects who leave their nest roughly ten times a day to find food. As they come and go from your home, you may begin to notice a distinctive increase in wasp activity around your property. During the warmer months, you’re likely to see a few wasps every now and then, but if there is an active wasp nest on your property, you’ll definitely notice the difference.
Wasps are creatures of habit that will often travel the same route daily. If you’re regularly seeing large amounts of wasps leaving and entering your property, then you’ve got yourself a wasp problem. Identifying the direction they’re flying in can also help to identify the location of the wasp nest.
If you’ve noticed one or more of these signs, you’re likely suffering from a wasp problem and require the help of Vermicure. Call now on 07951 157254 to book your wasp nest removal.
