Bradford's stone mills, conversions and terraces all attract nesting wasps. A wasp nest treatment has a fixed cost of £90, and there are no call-out charges.
Victorian wool-trade cities were built big, and Bradford is no exception. Large stone mills have high parapets, sheltered ledges and broken window surrounds, and a nest on one of them is a different job from a nest in a terrace loft. Mill conversions into flats add a further twist, because the roof void may belong to a management company rather than the flat owner.
In the terraced streets, the usual culprits are eaves, party-wall gaps and rear extensions. The city centre brings its own concern, since nests near entrances or yards affect staff and visitors. Whichever applies, tell us at the first call. There are no call-out charges, and the wasp nest treatment itself is a fixed cost of £90.
That depends on your lease or tenancy. Often the managing agent or owner of the structure arranges it. Check with them before we visit, and tell us who will give access to the roof void.
A larger nest holds more wasps and they defend it more strongly, so stings are more likely if it is disturbed. Size does not change the fixed price, but it does mean you should not approach it yourself.
