Last year staying at my sisters cottage we had to call out the wasp exterminator to get rid of a huge nest in the loft

One year on, same place, 2nd day here another bleedy wasps nest in the loft :smt088 after we'd seen wasps going under the eves.

Different nest, this one is thankfully about one third the size of last years nest. Still its a bleedy nuisance, as we'll need to call out the pest man again :smt013

Last year the pest man said the wasps wouldn't return.

Last years wasps were a bleedy German variety.

Our holidays in Norfolk are cursed, we've never had a week of warm weather in August. Low and behold the weather has changed for the worst this week.

Next year, off to the Fatherland for us, at least all the wasps will be in the UK

Oh thats not good. If there are two species I could rid the world of it would be ants and wasps.

We had wasps build a nest in the same part of our loft for about 3 years on a trot. We removed the nests and cleaned it all out properly but they still came back.

I bet they were bleedy Germans:p

Poor wasps, finding themselves a nice safe warm home and along you come and evict them! Each one has a brain the size of a pin head, they come in beautiful colours and they hunt irritating pests. What is not to like?


Now this is a cool wasp, the Tarantula Hawk Wasp.

Quite easy really, when the nest is only a couple of feet away from my kiddies bedroom, in the loft space, with direct access through gaps between the ceiling and window, as its a quaint country cottage :rolleyes:

So the buggers can feck off:smt072

Getting rid of the nest without killing the waspies might not be a good idea.

They've just manglified the huge nest in the loft of our local pub and everyone in the village is now infested by holemess wasps. The kids killed 48 in the house yesterday alone, with one of those electric Tennis racket swatters.

Waspies will meet their end tomorrow, when the pest man gives the nest a lethal injection.

So they won't be made homeless, quite the opposite.

I do feel sorry for the waspies, they haven't caused any major problems (yet) but 2 years running is not funny when there's potential for my kids to get badly stung.

Plus my mum and dad are coming here soon, and the nest will only be bigger, if I don't do anything
