Pest Control Wasp or Bee?

Pest Control Wasp or Bee? – as a pest controller covering Manchester, Cheshire and Lancashire it has become apparent that there is a great deal of confusion, especially in the under forties between wasps and bees and even between honeybees and bumblebees.

Perhaps in these heath and safety obsessed days schools no longer have the summertime nature rambles of my youth and that is a great pity.

At a distance it is possible to the untrained eye to confuse wasps and honeybees but bumblebees should never be in doubt.

This One's A Wasp

A wasp is any insect of the order Hymenoptera and suborder Apocrita that is neither a bee nor ant but in terms of common understanding we are dealing in North West Britain with just three species which we term wasps, The Common Wasp (Vespula vulgaris), The German Wasp (Vespula germanica) and the relative newcomer termed the ‘Euro Wasp’ (Dolichovespula media).

The biology of wasps and bees is very different.

In the late autumn a wasps’ nest dies out completely and is never re-used. The workers and males die but the newly produced queens hibernate for the winter before waking in the spring to start nest building.

At the first sign of warmer weather the young queens emerge from hibernation and commence nest building, mixing rotten wood with saliva to make ‘wasp paper’ with which to construct the nest.

She will lay 15 – 20 eggs in cells inside the nest and tend these until the first workers emerge to take over the nest building process.

How Much Does a Pest Control Company Cost?

Welcome to Harrier Pest Prevention dealing with all types of pest control in Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. We are available to help seven days per week on 0800 019 8382 or 01257 230637.

How Much Does a Pest Control Company Cost? – That’s a very difficult question to consider. It’s a little bit like ringing a mechanic and asking him how much to fix your car without being able to see it and diagnose the problem, virtually impossible to do.

Some jobs are pretty straightforward and here at Harrier Pest Prevention we are happy to give a fixed price on wasps’ nests but virtually every other pest problem will require a no obligation, free of charge site visit.

I would indeed be wary of any pest control company that are prepared to give prices without a site survey as this may indicate that they are not carrying out correct risk-assessments and are not mindful of the safety of you, your children and your pets.

For your no obligation site visit in Lancashire, Cheshire or Greater Manchester contact Harrier Pest Prevention or phone 0800 019 8382.
