    Treating wasp nests within domestic dwellings

    Thank you for this, we looked at some youtube vids on this last night !! it does look a pretty neat and effective approach, but our vacuum cleaner doesn't seem set up for it, and I don't think I'm going to be able to get all the extension tubes together to get high enough. I do wish there were...

    Treating wasp nests within domestic dwellings

    Thank you for your reply.. I'm not looking for any apology. I was only ever looking for level headed advice and I'm grateful to have received some on this thread as opposed to the comment yesterday you refer to yesterday which was fully intended to offend. I don't disagree wasps are very...

    Treating wasp nests within domestic dwellings

    Thanks for the reply on this - is Ficam W better than Ficam D? e.g. less likely to spread outside the target area? I will get a trained person to do this, but the person who will do it is pretty open to using different products.

    Oh dear. I think I'm wasting my time on here. As I was saying I was hoping for some balance. I'll pose my question elsewhere.

    Least bad method of dealing with wasps

    Asking us to effectively not use a window for at least the rest of the summer in our main living space isn't very practical!! I'm looking for advice on which chemical agent is least likely to have effect on bees locally. If you're not sure do you know where I might be able to find out please...

    Least bad method of dealing with wasps

    Hello, I hope you don't mind me posting here. I'm not a beekeeper and don't intend to be but I do care about bees! We've discovered we have a wasp issue with entry point at the corner of a window on our dormer loft conversion.. If I could just have the nest removed without insecticides I...
