If there\u2019s one thing guaranteed to put a downer on summer, it\u2019s the presence of wasps. Although they\u2019re unlikely to sting you unless they feel threatened, having them constantly buzzing around you when you\u2019re trying to relax in the garden is incredibly unnerving.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you think that you may have a wasp nest in your home or at a business premises, below we have identified some of the most common places you\u2019re likely to find these insects hiding. \u00a0How to<\/span> get rid of wasps<\/span><\/a> with Prokill Pest Control.<\/span><\/p>\n

Inside Buildings<\/b><\/h2>\n

If you suspect that you may have a nest in the building, chances are that they have been with you for some time now. Wasps tend to make their way in through cracks and openings in the Autumn and then spend the winter hibernating in the warmth of your home or office.<\/span><\/p>\n

More often than not, you will find them in attics, soffits, chimneys, wall voids, around the eaves and ledges of a house and in window and door casings. Like most pests, they tend to set up home somewhere dark and quiet where they won\u2019t be disturbed which is why a lot of people don\u2019t even realise they have an infestation until the weather starts getting warmer.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s at this time of year that you may start to notice them emerge from beneath baseboards, behind window and door frames, from within sash-cord openings and around light fixtures and ventilators.<\/span><\/p>\n
