Tips To Deal With Wasp Nest
Dealing with wasps and their nests can be very dangerous. However, following certain tricks may help to deal with these pests efficiently.
There are mainly two types of wasps — one is German wasp and the other one Vespula Wasp. The former type generally build their nests in bushes or the ground, whereas the latter ones are more likely to build their nest boxes in man made structures as well as bushes & grounds. Recent studies have shown that too much of wasp nests in bushes is becoming a serious trouble for Melburnians.
Dealing and handling wasp nests can be a dangerous task as these pests tend to sting multiple times instead of just once like a bee. Wasps intuitively attack people as soon as they find them closer to their nest box. They generally have some lookout members from their colony who keep tabs of anyone approaching their shelter. When they realise that some kind of danger is threatening them, they immediately inform the entire population present inside the nest, and attack in large groups.
Getting rid of wasps and their nest completely is a tough job. Although you can get an instant relief by applying certain DIY techniques, but there is no guarantee that these little creatures will not invade your house in future. Even if you are successful in removing the nest from your home, there is a chance that the forgaging wasps will return and hang around their nest area for a day or two. Hence in order to get more effective results, it is always advisable to hire a professional or an expert who can offer effective control measures against them. So simply find a professional pest control company providing the services of wasp control in Melbourne and hire them immediately.
Generally new and young wasps often face certain difficulties when locating their nests and can get confused while looking for their nest in man made structures. Therefore, check whether they are flying directly towards the location of their nests or roaming outside around the premises. If they are flying outside your area, then their actual nest must be located in some neighbouring property that looks similar to your residence — similar colour or same style. Visually inspect all your neighbouring properties and notify your neighbours about the wasp infestation. Only a professional pest controller can handle the “lost wasps” and remove them from your premises. However, in order to terminate wasp infestation completely, it is advisable to hire a professional at least once in two months even after the nest has been removed.
