Just wanted to say what an excellent, courteous + well spoken chap this Paul Barker is! He came to set some mice traps and explained everything clearly. I am also very impressed at how many traps were set (compared to Man City Councils 3). He worked quickly and efficiently and I am sure you already know what an asset to your company this young chap is. Customers are always quick to complain but we never praise the ones who work hard.He took a cheque payment and had made a further weekend appointment (which I really needed because I am a teacher!) for a second visit.So thanks once again – hopefully this will be the last of the little pesks!(Saxelby Drive, Manchester)

Wasp treatment Service in the Manchester, Stockport and Cheshire areas – £59.50
Prices & Services: Wasp Nest Removal prices start at £45 depending on your area, and will cost no more. If you require a wasp nest to be treated then phone or email us. If we find another nest on the site we will only charge £10 for its treatment, no matter the size or location. Also offer a removal of the nest at a extra cost off £45 24-72 hours after treatment – if accessible (lofts, porches, decking, facias, etc) What Happens When We Arrive?
- A full site survey is conducted to identify the nest and check for any other nests on the property. We cannot guarantee that every nest will be spotted, but we endeavour to find all sources of wasps on arrival.
- The area is prepared for treatment with all safety information relayed to you.
- The treatment is applied, which generally triggers high wasp activity around the nest as they attempt to protect the queen wasp.
- The first hour after treatment will show a gradual decrease in wasp activity as the treatment takes effect within the nest. Wasps entering the nest spread the treatment further around the colony.
- After 2 hours, wasp activity will have almost disappeared as the entire colony has been contaminated with the treatment.
- A few wasps yet to return to the nest may remain active in the garden but during the first 24 hour period they too will return and be contaminated.
- After 48 hours the nest is completely dead, with no remaining wasps.

Signs of Wasp Nests Trafford Wasp Control £59.50 fixed price
Large numbers of wasps in your home or garden are almost certainly caused by a local nest, either on your property or your neighbours.
These nests can contain thousands of wasps when at full capacity.
With stings an ever present threat, sometimes leading to allergic reactions, it is best to treat nests as early as possible, with the best possible means.
Worried about a Wasp Nest?
If you have a history of allergic reactions to wasp stings, you should absolutely avoid treating a nest on your own. Wasps will always attack anyone attempting to remove their nest.
At Manchester and Trafford Pest Control, we provide a highly skilled, professional wasp nest treatment service to eliminate the threat and nuisance posed by wasp infestation.
Qualified professionals – All our wasp control technicians have experience, training and necessary gear to deal properly with wasp nests, in the most effective and safe manner.
Safe treatments – Our technicians are NPTA /BPCA certified and work to RSPH Level 2 PEST MANAGEMENT guidelines, ensuring best practise removal of wasps nests.
Nest removal – Once a nest has been treated with an insecticide, we can also remove the body of the nest, at a later date, and at least 48 hours after treatment, thereby reducing the risk of a secondary infestation.
Identifying a Wasp Nest
Wasps construct their nests from the chewed pulp of wood mixed with saliva, resulting in a papery look, distinctive from bee’s wax nests.
They are usually found in sheltered areas with easy access to the outdoors where the wasps forage. Wall cavities, rafters, eaves, sheds, lawn holes, garages and roof spaces are all common haunts for nests.
The best way to find a nest is by watching the route a wasp takes. Later in summer this becomes easier as the wasp population increases.
How big can a Wasp Nest be?
Wasp nests begin small, around the size of a golf ball at first.
But as the summer passes, nests can quickly grow, with a corresponding rise in wasp population. At this stage they can surpass a football in size.
It is therefore best to eliminate the nest as quickly as possible, increasing the chance of success due to fewer numbers, and also before the wasps get hungry and aggressive in late summer.
Difference between Wasps and Bees
Wasps are often confused with bees, but the treatment of each requires different courses of action.
Importantly, bees are considered an endangered species, and their nest can only be removed if it poses a meaningful threat to people. Only after consultation with a qualified bee keeper will we treat a bees nest, and always as a last resort.
For wasps, the situation is simpler with a variety of professional solutions.
Key Facts
The wasps most commonly found in the UK are the Social Wasp (Vespula vulgaris) and the German Wasp (Vespula germanica).
There are other species, equally as problematic, but fortunately much less common:
• Wasps have considerably less bodily hair than bees
• Wasps are thinner than bees with a tighter waist between the thorax and abdomen.
• Wasps are similar in appearance to hornets, but are much smaller in size.
• Yellow and black stripes on their body are key wasp markings.
• They are comprised of three body parts: head, thorax and abdomen.
• The average wasp size is 12 to 17 millimetres.
• Stings only come from female wasps, and unlike bees, they can sting repeatedly.

How wasp nests are treated and destroyed Manchester Stockport Areas
There are three key problems a wasp infestation will pose:
1. An active wasp nest on your property.
2. Queen wasps waking from hibernation too early.
3. Sporadic, persistent nuisance wasps, despite no visible nest.
We will cover all scenarios here.
1. Active wasp’s nest on your property
If you have an infestation of wasps and have spotted a wasp nest on your property the safest and most efficient method is using a professional pest controller.
Wasps are extremely protective of their nests and will attack people and animals to defend it. Even walking near it is enough to trigger a defensive response, so removal of the nest is necessary for your safety.
Their stings are famously painful and can cause an allergic reaction as well as an infection.
They are predators, hunting for insects in dirty places that contain much bacteria. When they hunt they drag their sting through the dirt as they walk, which causes a bacterial build up in their venom sacks as they age. A sting from such a wasp not only releases its venom, but also bacteria deposits that can lead to infection.
We are often called out to help customers who have attempted to remove a nest on their own, and have become overwhelmed by their defensive response. DIY attempts are strongly advised against, as many of the commercial products are not effective in treating the problem. Choosing to remove a nest yourself can be dangerous and using a professional is the only way of guaranteeing the issue is resolved.
Commercial wasp traps are not enough to fully exterminate a wasp’s nest; skilled exterminators with proper tools are the most effective solution.
2. You have queen wasps in your house in winter
Changes in climate have meant more people are finding large queen wasps inside their homes during winter, when we usually expect to be insect free. When temperatures rise above 7°c for a sustained period, queen wasps will wake up, and seek domestic light sources. Lofts and attics are common homes for queen wasps waking up early from hibernation and they require a special fog machine for treatment. The machine disperses a liquid insecticide into the loft area as a very fine mist, effective in reaching all areas of the loft.
3. You need to get rid of wasps but cannot find the nest.
Don’t worry if you cannot find the nest! They can often be difficult to find and we can treat the immediate problem of wasp infestation.
Wasp traps
From lemonade bottles cut in half to shop bought solutions, DIY wasp traps are regularly attempted by people who assume the problem is a simple fix.
With lots of wasps buzzing around them and caught inside, they can look like they are doing a good job.
But on closer inspection, all is not what it seems: most are alive, and more keep coming.
Wasp feeding behaviour
In reality, DIY wasp traps are extremely inefficient. They only kill a small percentage of a wasp colony, and do not prevent scout wasps from bringing more wasps to the tempting trap.
So what are scout wasps? Wasps use a simple tracking system to locate food. The nest sends out scout wasps in search of food, who then return to the nest when a source is found, to recruit other wasps for feeding. There is much competition between wasp colonies for food sources, meaning several groups of wasps can be fighting for the same prize. They will continue to feed on a given source of food until it is fully depleted before moving on.
With this in mind, DIY wasp traps kill very few wasps of the total local population. There may be lots of dead wasps in the trap, but compared to the number that fed on the trap, it is a small sacrifice. What this means is that homemade wasp traps are often counterproductive, merely attracting more wasps to the area, even if they kill a few.
Controlling the Wasp Problem.
As pest controllers, we are able to use behavioural patterns of the wasps to take control of the problem.
If a neighbour has a nest and isn’t dealing with the problem, then you need to deal with the wasps as they come. Without being able to destroy the nest we cannot kill all the wasps, but we can dictate where they feed.
A homemade wasp trap does not have the capacity to solve the problem as it would have to kill 3000 to 6000 wasps, attracting huge numbers of wasps in the process.
The solution is laying high efficiency wasp traps that catch every wasp that enters. Crucially, they will catch the scout wasps, thereby preventing further wasps from arriving. Without the scout’s ability to report back to the nest, there will be no wasp traffic on your property, as the wasps assume your home to be an empty store.
The key to making a trap is to prevent any escape. A classic method is cutting the top off a soda bottle and inverting the top into the lower half, making a funnel which traps the wasps. This is not that effective however, and a better technique requires drilling holes into a tube, which is then inserted into a detergent container. Having squeezed through the holes into the container, it is very hard for the wasps to get back out. Adding plenty of sugar to the bait will attract more wasps into the trap.
Due to lack of demand, we no longer provide wasp traps and always recommend having a nest treated professionally.
How Wasp Nests are destroyed
For professionals, wasp nest treatment is a simple process, albeit occasionally dangerous; wasps are perennially defensive and will always attack should they feel threatened.
Specialist controllers use professional grade insecticides as well as proper application equipment. Using these two in tandem, and understanding the nature of wasp infestations requires much training. The equipment and insecticides used are not available to the general public and cannot be found in hardware stores.
The most common insecticide uses is Dust, which is pumped into the nest, targeting the entry point. Nests can be found in a wall, under a roof tile or even in holes on lawns. As the wasps return to the nest they are covered in the dust, and carry it deep into the nest. As the effects of the Dust takes minutes to kick in, contaminated wasps disperse the insecticide around the nest, contaminating other wasps. As more wasps arrive, more of the substance is transmitted around the nest, eventually killing off the entire colony.
How long before a wasp nest dies after treatment?
When a nest is treated in this manner, most of the wasps will die within two hours. Individual wasps usually die within minutes of coming into contact with the dust.
The entire nest is usually destroyed by the end of the day, when all the wasps of the colony have returned. A few outlying wasps may remain, having been late or trapped elsewhere, but the insecticide remains in the nest, killing the last few when they return later.
Can a wasp nest be destroyed immediately?
On some occasions, a much faster removal of a wasp colony is required. Using a “quick knock down” insecticide, an aerosol type foam can be sprayed on the nest. These foam applications function much faster than the Ficam D dust, killing the wasps immediately, without the process of gradual dispersion through the nest. The drawback to this approach is that any wasps outside the nest will not die.
Professionals generally have a repertoire of nest removal methods, including smoke generators, but crucially they have the expertise to apply these methods.
DIY wasp nest removal
Should I treat a wasp nest myself?
Most people will be tempted to destroy a wasp’s nest themselves if discovered in their home, whether using DIY techniques or commercial products.
These products provide little directions for use, and people without experience will lack the key skills in effectively removing the nest. Having experience and the right tools for the job are the best weapons against wasp’s nests, and professionals provide these in abundance
