Frequently Asked Questions
How much does professional wasp nest treatment cost in Manchester?
Primary wasp nest treatment is £59.50 across Manchester, Stockport and Cheshire. Any other pest problems we can give you a price over the phone.
Should I seal up a wasp hole in my wall with expanding foam?
Never seal the hole while wasps are active. Trapped wasps will chew through internal plasterboard to escape into your living space.
Will wasps reuse the same nest next year?
No. Old nests are abandoned at the end of autumn and queens build a new nest each spring. However, attractive void conditions may draw new queens if unproofed.
