Fecking wee buggers.

[Lazarus]

Found we have a wasps nest in the garage (sort of)

Large number of wasps coming and going through a hole in the garage wood (which is in need of repair) into a part of the garage which is boxed off.

Sprayed the hole with expanding foam which confused them for a few hours, but they found a new way in. patched up other holes with silicon and I think they are actually chewing their way out.

Now, after an event in my younger days, I hate these little buggers. Every time I go near the garage I freak out. ANyone experienced this before (the wasps nest situation -= not the freaking out)?

 

[Brynn]

Yup we had a wasps nest in the eve's of the house.

Stuck some of the anti-bug stuff up there, was great. Was forever finding dead wasps everywhere.

The stuff we got, was a fine powder, which stuck to their feet (if they have them) and wherever they go they take some of the powder there with them.

 

[Calaen]

Ant powder works great cover the entrances with it and as brynn says the waps unintentionally take it in to the hive killing them from the inside.

 

[old.Tohtori]

f'ing hate those f'ing f'faces....

Hate them with a passion. Burn the house down and take the motherf'ers down with you!

 

[~Yuckfou~]

The local council will sort it out for you. I once had a nest in the cavity in the wall of my house. the buggers had chewed through the cement between the bricks to make an entrance.
I also get the odd nest started in my garden shed. Usually spot these before they get too big as I'm in there quite a lot.

 

[TdC]

I f*****g hate wasps in my perfect world wasps, dogs and mozzies dont' exist!

 

[Furr]

At least you didn't have rats.... bloody things, living between our house and next doors, set up a plan to eradicate them. Poison, found their nest, flooded it, to flush them out, rat traps, and bait traps where i would shoot them with an Air rifle. Think they are all dead now, have'nt seen one since.

 

[Tom]

Phone the council, a Bee/Wasp man will kill em all for free.

Charges

In general, all pest control work undertaken by the Service is chargeable. In the case of Council or Housing Association properties, costs are reclaimed from the agencies concerned, whilst owner/occupiers are charged directly.

Some works, such as rat and mouse treatments, are charged in accordance with the number of visits and time undertaken, plus cost of materials, etc., whilst other jobs, e.g. treatment of wasp nests, carry a flat rate ; a wasp nest eradication, for instance, is currently charged at a flat rate of £36.75 plus VAT..

 

[Gumbo]

Blimey they are tight up there. Wasp and rat eradication is free down here, they charge for mice though, curious.

I once had a wasp nest in my loft and my computer systems were based up there.

One day turned on my webcam, streaming mode, and took the Dyson up and hoovered the fuckers up in midflight.

Managed to catch lots of the buggers and then I left the Dyson on so they flew around at over 100mph in the see-thru bit. Then they died and I had to get down sharpish as the rest were getting angry.

Someone has got pics of me doing this somewhere, Athena?

 

[TdC]

god but you're a nutter sometimes Deebs. hoovering up ticked off wasps? no feeeeeeaaaaaaaär

Last nest we had was in a hedge.

I poured a load of Toluene on them (borrowed from work) which drugged them up nicely, then moved the nest and set fire to it

Had to work fast mind, toluene evaporates at a rapid rate of knots.

(Oh, and I wore a fully body asbestos suit too)

 

[Chilly]

I can never remember what toluene is, except that trinitrotoluene is TNT. must be something stuck to a benzene i suppose?

 

[Lazarus]

That infers you returned it when finished.

I can never remember what toluene is, except that trinitrotoluene is TNT. must be something stuck to a benzene i suppose?

reasoning infers that toluene is simply T

 

[.Wilier.]

I dunno chili, all I know is that we use it as an additive when blending gasoline
and its really really fecking flammable.

 

[Insane]

Wiki on Toluene
