O/T Pest control

[Christies Child]

No CC's not the one needing the control ( ) but my mother is!

Her house has been the new home to a swarm of wasps who have taken up residence in her roof. I need the services of a Pest Control expert who can get rid of the little sods.

Looked through Yellow Pages and nearest is a guy in Warton.

Anybody know of someone who lives in Morecambe who could do the job?

Cheers
CC

just wear a boiler suit and put a motor bike crash helmet on, then get a few tins of insect killer that should do the job

council will do it for circa £33

The simplest, easiest, cheapest solution is - put a sizable mirror up next to the nest and they frighten themselves away!! Really!

£33!

Do it Yourself for less than a tenner.
Wrap yourself in bin bags, go into the loft, liberally pour petrol around, leave the loft,
throw a lit match up there before closing the hatch, jobs a good 'en, no more wasps.
A further safety precaution would be to get your family out into the garden and check
your household and buildings insurance policies are up to date.

Ignore them, they'll be gone soon and they perform an excellent function in the garden. They don't return to the same nest.

I got stung this year for the first time ever. I had tonsillitis at the time and a temperature of 39.8 'c so I had vaguely flapped an arm at the 'thing' that was walking on my face. If I'd been well, I'd have ignored it and it would have gone away. Stung on the lip and have tonsillitis at the same time wasn't fair! I did have just enough working brain cells to think 'what if I'm allergic and go in to anaphylaxis shock? How will I know my throat is swelling up when it is already swollen up?' So I decided to just go back to sleep on the basis that if I woke up I wasn't allergic...

Next time before you go to sleep, stick an epipen up your arse, then sleep tight.

"they perform an excellent function in the garden"

Thats true, some of them set up a marquee in ours and sold elderflower champagne
