Garforth's mix of inter-war and post-war housing means most nests turn up in eaves, lofts and garden buildings. We treat them for a fixed cost of £90.
Housing in Garforth is mostly inter-war and post-war, so the nests we hear about are fairly predictable. Soffit boxes along the front of a semi, the roof space above a first-floor extension, airbricks low on the wall and the roofs of detached garages account for most of them. They are easy to spot once you know the pattern, and the fix is usually quick.
A nest in the soffit or airbrick of a post-war house often looks small from the outside and is much larger within, because the paper shell grows out of sight. That is why we like to treat it properly instead of just spraying the entrance. Our fixed cost for a wasp nest treatment is £90, and we agree it with you before starting.
No. Wasps build grey papery nests and fly in straight, busy lines. Bees are furrier and often gather in clusters. Because treatment depends on identification, send us a photo or description before anything is done.
They do not reuse an old nest, but a new queen may pick the same sheltered spot because it suits. Blocking holes and repairing gaps once the nest is dead can reduce the chance of repeat visits.
