My advice to you is to get a pest control firm in to deal with the wasps mate.
If you get it wrong they will sting you badly,i know i've been there and i'm trained and was wearing the right kit i just got my timing wrong.
Don't ring rentakill you will get ripped off.Ring a local firm as you will get better service.



Sound advice mate.
A friend of mine works for the local council and he told me about a fellow who had wasps nesting in the eaves of his bungalow, Sunday afternoon, after a drink or two he had set fire to his bungalow by trying to;
  "burn them out with a lighted aerosol"

 Its sad really but we just couldn,t stop laughing when he told me. The old fellow has been temporary rehoused while repair work takes place, and the wasps recover from smoke inhalation :grin:


Gaz   
so many repairs
 so little time

My grandad did this a few years ago to a privet hedge they had nested in. A tuna tin full of petrol on a long length of 1" baton, under the nest, and whoosh. :)

Laughed my pants off, but Grandad never saw the funny side. :)

When we moved into our new workshops (an old chapel ) there was a big wasp nest in the rafters . We got an extendable tree lopper and a bucket on a pole, placed the bucket underneath and cut the small peice of nest holding it up...

it fell into the bucket and we pulled it down quick and stuck a lid on , bingo....

now if anyone remembers these ( plastic balls with rubber bumpers stuck all over then that vibrate) well that bucket was walking around the room they were going nuts  :lol: :lol:
so many hills , so little time ....

cats are great rabbit hunters, shame they wont lower themselves to be trained to do it on demand, no they prefer to leave the severed rabbit head on your pillow to show their love :evil:

Ours seem to be into catch and release - the snake wasn't though.

I knew a chap who had the misfortune to own both a rabbit-hunting cat and a garden railway with a tunnel. He kept finding dismembered bits of rabbit in the depths of the tunnel...
