Wasp Nest Removal Explained | Professional Pest Control Advice

0:00 But I love doing wasps. One thing I love doing. I'm not a big straight out, but I love getting into a loft space where you know you've got a big wasp nest you've got to tackle. Do you just treat it, or are you one of these people that treats it and removes it all? Removes it straight away. Okay. So how does that work? Because I've never done that. I've seen it being done on videos but I've never seen somebody actually tackle a nest sorry I have seen it in a video but in one video someone's shed but how's that work in a lost space it's very very dangerous situation that is removing it at the same time it's it's adrenaline more than anything for me I love the adrenaline rush you've got you've got a big mess there you've got to make sure you're sealed from head to toe you've got it yeah tape it up tape your top of your gloves up yeah trousers make sure you wear your boots and tape the bottom of your trousers so take your trousers to your boots take your trousers to your boots yeah there's nothing worse i did that last year and i've still got a sting on my leg oh being a bit cocky making a net treating a nest yeah just about to get it and i was just i thought oh i'll sit on my heels i had to stop them going up and then you just have one wasps that goes under your suit down your boot and stings you think oh for christ's sake oh no so always tape your boots up even if you're doing the nest outside especially if you're doing nesting grounds ground work like if you're going to remove nests from in the ground make sure you have your trousers taped up good so would you say as well

1:53 obviously you have your base it's called a bee suit isn't it and you have your gloves would you do you also take your gloves to your suit as well not really i just wear the gloves on the outside mainly just get yourself some decent gloves um and i always wear another pair gloves underneath anyway like a thin pair of gloves okay that's good so i i put i put it i use them rubber gloves you know the the rubber bee gloves yeah i think they're really good i've got a pair that's 20 years old well yeah that value for money oh yeah yeah but they're they're the real hard rubber ones yeah but then i just bought myself a new pair for rubber ones but I got five B suits I love B suits for some reason i got tops trousers full suit green suit white you more into boss than me you are yeah so so obviously if you take the nest away do you actually do you actually treat it what the nest yeah do you actually treat it yeah yeah yeah you kill the next stuff um what's next destroy yeah take i haven't got one here um but i normally take that stupid red thing off the top yes otherwise yeah and i put um you know the free spray yeah the long nozzle yeah they fit perfectly onto them yeah and you just prod the

3:27 nest and just pull it out and it just kills the nest off because it actually works better than the free spray i've proved this to matt lody a couple of years ago any pressure are you on about where you've got the there's two versions of it that's a wasp nest destroyer and there's the insect one that's exactly the same but comes out at a slower rate is that what you're on about they're basically no no um you've got the big tin of the wasp nest destroyer yeah yeah do you know the free spray the cold free spray are you saying freeze freeze yeah oh right freeze okay freeze and that comes with a long straw on it it's been like the wd-40 cam okay put it down squirt it or pull it up and squirt it through the nozzle yeah and i just swap them tops over okay on there um and then i just prob the nest with that you you use less aerosol so so you're not using the free spray you're using a nozzle off the free spray free spray took away so what i explain as well is like obviously you're buying loading what's necessary but they've also got a version that's the same but it's called insect one and it's the same it's it's the same but it just comes out at a slower rate yeah it's the same literally you bring them and they say it's the

5:02 same but it comes up because basically when you get your chemical if you have to use a chemical lance you use that one because it comes out a slower rate it's it's it's basically the same stuff but it comes out at a slower rate it does I use that wasp nest destroyer on a chemical telescopic lens so that works perfectly fine that works perfectly fine but yeah just uh i i tried probiochock as well that another fantastic product okay but you got to be careful with probiochock um yeah if you see a wasp nest on the floor in the loft yeah you don't want to start spraying a load of that probiochock about okay because it just seeps through the nest quite quickly and goes onto the plasterboard and that's when it starts never in the plasterboard up so the way if i if i've only got probio chuck on the van yeah just get up there with a plastic bag and try and get it underneath the wasp nest before you start treating it okay uh and then probio chuck it and then you can just put it into a bag and take it away oh nice that is uh adam edwards has just said urban chop drops a mid-fly yeah yeah it's good it's good i used that when they first come out and i had a cracking little wasp nest to do really busy really active really aggressive and i was just and they were just dropping

6:35 dropping my clothes nice so then you just obviously once you've killed obviously what will still be buzzing around yeah yeah yeah you still well you try and get as many as you can if they're flying if if they're flying about you yeah always wear your protective protective protective gear um especially a full face you need a full face mask you don't want one of these our face ones full face especially if you're getting chemical anywhere do they fit in the

7:10 yeah yeah make sure you've got the right um filters for it yeah all right that's that's if i can give anybody a bit of advice make sure it fits properly you've got the right filters uh because you don't want to spray spraying chemicals in the loft and get them in your eyes no one that so yeah just some cheap fly spray wasp spray kill the ones out in the loft uh and then try and find the entry point where the wasp coming in okay that's 99 easy you'll see where a few more start coming in uh through the entry point uh and before it was banned if i can be just just puff a little bit if i can be on the entry point so you're not squirting loads of it everywhere just a little bit on the entry so when they come in at night they walk across it whilst nest treated you never have a call you never have a call back well if you removed the nest direct no you never have a call back there no no so i presume with that kind of service you would charge more than somebody who's just spraying it and then going so you yeah because it's a hundred percent guarantee it's gone because you take it away in the bag yeah yeah yeah and and it's nice because you bring it in you can actually show them the nest after you after you've

8:36 destroyed it and people are quite curious let's have a look inside and you can break it open and show them yeah because they are look they are everyday wass are deadly yet the uh the wass the boss nest they're like they are arts of works of art they really well they don't look nice all the layers have got in on its nets are a lot better i like it on its nest look a lot nicer some reason don't know why but they look a lot nicer whether they can chew a bit harder wood like oak or anything like that but you get some nice colors in it in a hornish nice but yeah thanks for talking me for how you do it because i've never never removed it one like that before it's a good weight loss program as well oh i could imagine dripping you know what i'm hot now but when you were talking about i was like oh goodness i'd be like if you get yourself a decent b suit one of them three layer b suits you can wear shorts just just wear shorts just make sure your boots are tied at the bottom shorts and t-shirt yeah well yeah it's you just under the b-suit isn't it yeah yeah it's like years ago when we had them fabric ones we put a i put a fleece underneath yeah and then the fabric one over the top so you spend it oh you would sweat then

10:04 so do you do you obviously do the same thing with a hornet's nest yeah exactly same yeah okay so yeah thanks for that i did not expect that to come up because yeah well that that's something different that is but a lot of pass controllers do remove them as well not everyone does but no um yeah that it's a really cool thing to get get insights on that one yeah you can't get to every every wasp message your limitations you can't have the perfect wasp nest standing there and then thing you do have to crawl about sometimes on on boards and get a bit precarious and a few precarious positions especially when you're getting a bit older your joints don't work so good uh and scraping the nest out but yeah
