Local Wasp Nest Removal Doncaster
The Dangers Of A Wasp Nest On Your Property
Wasps can be dangerous when they build their nests near humans, in areas such as homes, gardens, school playgrounds or business premises. That’s because wasps deliver a painful sting when they feel threatened, which might be whenever a human approaches their nest.
The worker wasps have a duty to protect the queen wasp inside the nest, and they will sting if you get too close. Wasp stings can be painful and cause itchy welts on your skin, and if you are allergic to wasps, then they can cause a reaction and even lead to anaphylactic shock, which can be fatal. Also, wasp nests can grow from the size of a golf ball to a basketball or bigger, and this can cause structural damage to your property if not removed promptly.

How To Identify A Wasp Nest
Wasps and their nests are often mistaken for other pests, including bees and hornets. At Don Valley, we can remove wasps and hornets, but we don’t carry out the relocation of honey bee swarms. As such, it’s important that you understand the difference between the three species before you call us to carry out your pest treatment.
Wasp nests are made from chewed paper and usually look like papier-mâché globes or teardrops. Hornet nests are also made from chewed wood, but they are usually less well-formed in shape than wasp nests, and only have one entrance. Wasp nests can have multiple entrance holes and a visible honeycomb. Bee nests are made from wax and are usually oozy, with the honeycomb pattern on the outside so you can see the individual cells.
Wasps never use the same nest twice and will build a new nest every year, so you might notice multiple wasp nests on your property. Other insects, such as moths, might make their home in disused wasp nests, so leaving them will cause even more issues in the future. If you see wasp nests or are unsure about what type of pest you’re dealing with, contact us for expert advice and pest treatment.

Wasp Nest Removal FAQs
Q: How much is wasp nest removal?
Wasp nest removal costs depend on a range of factors, including the number of nests you’re dealing with, the size of the nests and any access issues our pest technicians may face. Our team will provide a transparent quote so you get cost-effective wasp nest removal services.
Q: Can you remove a wasp nest by yourself?
It is not advisable to remove a wasp nest yourself, as you need Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and strong insecticides to safely remove a wasp nest. If you carry out the job without the correct PPE then you could face painful stings and potential allergic reactions. Don Valley Pest Management can provide full removal and disposal of wasp nests, so contact us to book today.
Q: How do I get rid of a wasp nest?
The best way to remove a wasp nest is to call in the professionals. As RSPH level 2 certified pest controllers, our team have access to insecticides that aren’t available to the general public. They can quickly and effectively remove your wasp nest and ensure wasps won’t return.
Q: Do wasps return to the same nest?
Wasps do not return to the same nest, which means that each year a new nest is built. They may return to the same site, however, meaning that if left unattended, you could soon find yourself with several wasp nests. Old wasp nests can be used by other insect pests, so you could face further problems. The best solution is to book professional wasp nest removal from Don Valley Pest Management.
