Welcome to Wasp Attack!
Wasps are social insects and form large colonies, or nests, which are socially structured and highly organised. Wasps are a widespread pest during the summer and cause fear and concern in many people because of their powerful stings especially as some species are quite aggressive. As many as 30,000 wasps can populate a nest and therefore protective clothing is extremely important.
The queen usually spends the winter in a warm protected site often located in lofts, attics, wall cavities or in the ground. The wasps’ nest may be treated directly with an insecticidal powder but often it is just as successful to treat their entry hole from outside. Beaver Pest Control guarantee total eradication if an active nest is present.
If the wasp nest cannot be located, treatment may involve the use of perimeter baits containing insecticide. Alternatively, insect screens on doors and windows will help stop wasps entering buildings and the installation of electric fly killers will help to control wasps if they do get inside premises.





The fore and hind wings are held together by a row of minute hooks giving the appearance of only one wing per side of the wasp. The wings are heavily veined.
