North Birmingham Advice
If wasps are entering through brickwork, fascia boards, rooflines, air vents, sheds, garages or gaps around a property, blocking the hole can make the problem worse. Wasps may look for another route and can sometimes end up inside the building.
Wasp or Bee?
The right advice depends on what is actually present. If you are unsure, keep clear of the activity and describe what you can see when you call.
Wasps and bees move differently in terms of their flight patterns and movements. Wasps tend to fly in a more direct, straight line and are known for their agility and quick movements. If wasps keep using the same hole, roofline gap or wall opening, there may be an active nest nearby.
Wasps are bright in colour and smooth. Bees are usually duller in colour, slightly furry and often rounder in shape. Sometimes you may need a trained eye to tell them apart, especially from a distance.
Common North Birmingham Callouts
From roofline gaps and sheds to business entrances and rental properties, most callouts begin with repeated wasp traffic in and out of one point.
Activity around soffits, fascia boards, roof tiles, gutter lines, air bricks, loft vents and upstairs gaps.
Wasps can nest near sheds, garages, fence panels, bushes, compost areas, patios and outdoor seating spaces.
Nests near staff doors, customer entrances, yards, schools, food areas or communal spaces can disrupt normal use quickly.

Treatment Process
The goal is to deal with the active nest safely. The nest is often treated from the entry point rather than removed while live, especially if it is hidden in a wall cavity, roof space or between floors.

Frequently Asked Questions
We can do if you can see it, but most nests are hidden in places such as wall cavities, roof spaces or between floors. We will not remove the nest while it is still active because it can be dangerous for the technician and the customer. We normally treat the nest from an external point first. If you want visible nest removal afterwards, this can be discussed at a later date at an additional cost.
For the first 2 to 3 hours you may see more activity, so it is best to keep nearby windows closed. In general, wasp nests are dead within 24 hours, but we say allow up to 48 hours as there may be a few stray wasps still returning.
As long as it is the same nest in the same area, call us back for advice. We guarantee our work and can arrange a re-treatment where appropriate.
Wasps are only active for one season and start dying off in autumn. Once the nest is dead, wasps will not re-occupy that old nest. New queens may hibernate and start a separate nest the following season.
We cannot kill honey bees. Honey bees can look similar to wasps but are usually not as bright and can look a little furry. If you have honey bees, it is best to contact a beekeeper as we may not be able to help.
Need help with a wasp nest?
If you have any issues with wasps in North Birmingham, do not leave it too long. As the nest grows, it can cause more issues coming into the summer months and may begin affecting doors, gardens, customers, tenants, staff or family members.
