Otley's old centre, riverside plots and newer housing below the Chevin each hide nests differently. Our nest treatment has a fixed cost of £90, with a guaranteed service.
Otley mixes older stone buildings in the market-town centre with housing that spreads out around it. In the centre, thick stone walls and old roofs give a queen deep, quiet cavities. Gardens near the River Wharfe and the edge of the Chevin forest park bring more wasp traffic, since trees, hedges and compost heaps give them places to nest and forage.
Ground nests are a common surprise in gardens like these: an abandoned burrow or a gap beside a path leads to a nest with no obvious structure above it. Do not mow over it. Ring us, mark the spot from a distance and we will deal with it. We offer a guaranteed service and the cost is fixed at £90 per nest treatment.
Walk away quickly, shut windows and keep pets indoors. Do not return to look. Ring us and describe where it is so that we can treat the nest, as angry wasps will defend it for the rest of the day.
Yes. A nest in a hedge or tree can be treated, but height and branches affect how we reach it. A photo of the location helps us decide whether a ladder, pole or other approach is sensible.
