Wasp season is here, and 2026 is set to be a busy year for wasp activity! 🐝
As temperatures rise, queen wasps emerge from hibernation and start to build new nests around homes, gardens, sheds, lofts, and businesses across Herefordshire.
Early action now can help prevent a small problem becoming a major infestation later in the summer.
⚠️ Look out for:
✔ Increased wasp activity around your property
✔ Wasps entering roof spaces, sheds, or wall cavities
✔ Early nest construction under eaves, in lofts, or garden buildings
⛔️ Under new industry regulations, professional-grade treatments are
restricted to certified pest technicians to limit environmental impact.
If you suspect a nest is developing, avoid DIY removal and seek professional guidance at the earliest opportunity.
Where a nest is established and active, treatment should only be carried out by a BPCA-accredited pest control professional.
Our latest blog explains what to expect during the 2026 wasp season, where wasps are most likely to nest, and how to protect your family, pets, and property.
