A Wasp Nest Problem
Removing a wasp nest, should be handled by a trained professional. It’s a no-brainer when you think that each wasp can contain as many as ten thousand angry wasps.
If you try and remove the nest yourself, you only need to anger one wasp and the whole clan will come looking for you. This is because a wasp emits a ‘help me’ pheromone when they feel threatened and this attracts all their stinging colonie mates.
After thinking about the problems of DIY wasp nest removal, I took a look around the internet at some of the bizarre ways people are told how to remove a wasp nest.
Before you start reading these, please understand – these wasp removal methods are dangerous and in no way recommended. Do not try them. Ever.
- – Spray the wasp nest with water.
- – Mow your lawn regularly to remove dandelions which wasps are attracted to.
- – Hit the wasp nest with a cricket bat until it is destroyed.
- – Wait until night and then remove the wasp and put it somewhere else.
- – Remove the nest and place it in the freezer to kill the wasps.
As you can tell. This is not what we call professional wasp removal advice. Some of these methods are simply ludicrous, others just plain dangerous and irresponsible.
