Wasps are a common sight in gardens and outdoor spaces throughout Blackburn and the rest of the UK, and when there’s one or two, they’re not much of a problem. However, a wasp nest could cause issues, especially if built inside your space.
Once wasps build a nest on your property, it can be difficult to remove them. While wasps are useful pollinators, they are also incredibly dangerous to humans, as they can become aggressive when disturbed.
When agitated, wasps have painful stings that can be fatal to anyone who is allergic to wasp venom. Most people only find out about a wasp allergy once they’ve been stung, by which time it could be too late, and they could be hospitalised or worse. To prevent wasps from harming you, your family or customers, it’s important that the wasps are removed.
So, if you find a wasp nest on your business property or home in Blackburn, you need help fast. PestEvo provides expert wasp nest removal that will get rid of the nest and remove the entire colony so the wasps won’t bother you again.

Reliable Wasp Nest Removal In Blackburn
Signs Of A Wasp Nest
The most obvious sign of a wasp nest is seeing it. Wasp nests look like they are made from papier-mâché, which is actually chewed wood, with layers which are usually wound around to create a dome shape. They usually have a small hole in them for the wasps to enter and leave. Wasp nests usually start around the size of a golf ball, but they can grow incredibly quickly to be as large as a basketball.
In some cases, it might be difficult to see the wasp nest yourself, especially if it’s placed in an inaccessible area, such as a garden building or in your attic. If you’re unsure about whether there’s a wasp nest, it’s best not to squeeze yourself into a tight space to find out. Instead, look out for these signs:
- Buzzing: Hearing a buzzing sound in your space is a sure sign that there are wasps in the area, which could mean there is a nest nearby.
- Wasps Flying In The Same Direction: If you see wasps flying in the same direction regularly or using the same gaps, then this could be a sign they are returning to their nest.
- Damp Patches: Wasp nests that have been built in loft spaces can cause damp patches to appear on the ceiling below.
If you notice any of these signs that there is a wasp nest on your property, then you need professional wasp control to remove the nest and the wasps inside it. PestEvo has extensive experience with insect pest control across Blackburn; as well as wasps, we also remove ants, bed bugs, cockroaches, fleas, moths and other insect pests. We’re ready to help with your wasp problem or any other insect issue you’re facing, so get in touch today.
The Importance Of Professional Wasp Nest Removal
To remove a wasp nest from your property, you need professional help. While there are DIY wasp control products out there, it’s important that you remember that wasps can become vicious when their nest is disturbed, as the workers act to protect the queen wasp inside the nest.
Without the right protective clothing and strong insecticide, you could end up earning yourself several wasp stings with nothing to show for it. Wasp nests that are attached to structures, such as your home’s roof or walls, need to be removed carefully to prevent damage.
The professionals at PestEvo can locate wasp nests and remove them from any part of your home. Whether they’re found in the roof, chimney or any other hard-to-reach area, our specialists can eradicate the wasps and remove the nest so that a new colony can’t make the old nest their home.
Wasps are often confused for honey bees or hornets. While they are similar in appearance, they’re all different species that require unique forms of treatment. Our team has experience removing bees and wasps, and we can provide identification before we remove the nest and the insects inside it. We can also remove common garden pests that are often found outdoors, like wasps nests, such as squirrels, moles, mice, and others.
