A nest in a Guiseley loft, wall or shed can be dealt with in a single visit in most cases. The fixed cost of £90 applies, and we explain what we find as we go.
Guiseley sits on the north-west edge of Leeds, close to Yeadon and Rawdon, so a call from one of the three often turns out to share a pattern: older stone terraces with loose roof edges, and later suburban estates with tidy gardens and a shed at the bottom. Wasps like both, because each offers dry, sheltered gaps near a food source.
If you can hear scratching or a faint papery rustle in a wall or ceiling, that is worth reporting even before a wasp shows. Do not plug the hole. Blocked entrances push wasps through plaster or around light fittings. We will examine the access point, treat the nest and say when to expect the activity to fade. The fixed cost of £90 is quoted up front.
The nest has reached full size by late summer and the workers have little brood to feed, so they chase sugar and turn up at drinks and bins. That is when most people notice them. The colony then declines in autumn.
Yes. Outbuildings are a very common place for nests because they are quiet and dry. Tell us if the nest is behind stored items, as we may need them moved so that the treatment reaches the nest properly.

Thank you Sean and Zack for your speedy and efficient response to our wasp problem. We originally thought we had 2 wasps nests but on the end had 4. After our initial call they came out the next day and even came out a few days later when another next was discovered. Thank you, we will definitely recommend you.Mrs Carter8 August 2018
