Alcoblog Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 (edited) lol. Let's not start that again! Too late! ... I've got my beady little eyes on this thread! Anyone know how to 'de-talcum powder' non-fluffy, washed and conditioned masonary wasps? Edited May 28, 2011 by Alcoblog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcoblog Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Sheffield Council will come and get rid of them, We have just had bees in our cavity wall but they were masonary bees which after laying their eggs go and then when the eggs hatch they just go also. Actually, masonary bees can cause serious amounts of trouble in cavity walls. The weight of their honey can force the walls apart causing severe structural damage. (Absolutely true!)

Carp-Chaser Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 if you cant see the actual nest, or safely get to the entrance hole, id just call someone to sort it. least its u not getting stung and it will be done correctly with proper stuff, not the crap that b+q sell, which only totaly wipes them out if u get the stuff inside the middle of nest, and with sounds of wer it is, u cant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E-Man Groovin Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 We had a nest in our bird box a couple of years ago. We called these guys http://www.bees-n-wasps.com/ they were very efficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carparking Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Hi I can recommend a company if your in Sheffield they can come out and spray the nest for you and they charge £35 in the Sheffield area message back if you're interested ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
