wasps in the loft

[Bad_Egg]

 

i went upstairs for a quick gander at my stash of girl...i mean to look at the water tank when i saw a giant wasps nest in the eves. i hate the b**tards ever since i trod on a nest as a boy and got stun all over. as ive got a bad hip do u reckon i shood risk life and limb to get rid or shood i wait until the autumn when they all die out? as the voleumptoous silla blacks mate wood say - the desision is yoors

Hi Eggy, hope my hip treatment has been working for you I had a wasps nest in an outbuilding near the pillars of my front door 2 years in a row! I tried all sorts to no avail. Your only hope is paying for a proper firm to take it away The wasps do return so don't think it will just die out.....

 

P.S I'll be in the treatment room

The Yanks that I know, call wasps, bees or hornets. Wasps doesn't seem to be(e) in their vocabulary!

'Jasper' is alleged to be an English expression which originated in the West Country.
