Knottingley's terraces and later housing lie close to the navigation and Ferrybridge. Free surveys for homes and businesses are available, and a nest treatment is a fixed £90.
Glass-making shaped Knottingley, and what remains is a town of terraces and later housing close to the Aire and Calder Navigation. Water and vegetation near the towpath bring wasps by the dozen in late summer, but a nest tends to be tucked into a roof, a wall or a shed rather than the waterside itself. Ferrybridge is close by, and callers sometimes ring from the boundary.
Free surveys for homes and businesses mean you can ask for a look at a suspected nest without committing to work. If treatment is needed, the wasp nest cost is fixed at £90. We will also point out any gaps worth sealing afterwards, once the colony has died, so that a new queen does not choose the same spot next spring.
We look at the area you are concerned about, identify the pest and explain what we would do. If the nest needs treating, we confirm the fixed cost. There is no obligation to go ahead.
Wait until the wasps have stopped using the entrance, normally a few days after treatment, and the nest is no longer active. Sealing too early can send survivors into the room. We can tell you when it is sensible.

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
