Bees and wasps
Bees
We no longer offer a bee treatment service unless they are a posing a risk to the general public. However, if you are concerned about a bee problem, please contact us and we will discuss this with you. Please also refer to the British Beekeepers Association or the Bumblebee Conservation Trust.
Wasps
We offer wasp pest control treatment for wasp nests throughout the Summer months starting from 1 June each year. We can offer one treatment for £75; this includes a £37 attendance charge.
Usually wasps don't fly before the beginning of June, if you wish us to visit to confirm the pest species you will be charged for an attendance at a cost of £37.
