Wasp Nest treatment in Leicestershire

Here in Leicester we are still treating a high number of nests on daily basis. Do you have a Wasp nest? If so GC Pest Control Limited are here to help

What does it cost to treat a wasp nest?

Normally a wasp nest treatment starts at around £50.00 this price could go up depending on a few things like access to treat the nest, if the nest can be treated and then removed, your location to where we are based (travel time).

Why do I have a wasp nest and how is it treated?

Wasp’s nest anywhere that the Queen feels safe enough to build a nest. This could be in your loft space, wall cavity, behind facia and soffit  boards, out houses, in the ground and many other places.

Treatment involves several different options of insecticide, we would decide on the most effective and safe one to use while inspecting the nest site. It could be dust, liquid or aerosol insecticide.

How long will it take to kill the nest?

The treatment depending on what we use does not take long, normally with dust within an hour the activity will have died down. As the dust is spread further round the nest it should be killed off within 24 hours, you might still see some coming and going but these are just workers that will die off.

If the nest is visible and you want it removing then it can be treated with liquid or aerosol and this will kill the nest off within 15-30 minutes and then the nest is removed.

Here at GC Pest Control Limited we try to offer a same day service, this would depend on your availability and also ours.

Excellent Service. I have used them twice once in 2021 and again this week for a different area. They treated the wasp problem, were very prompt and said if still there in couple of days to call them and they would come again for free. I thought the price I paid was very good. Certainly recommend them.

Wanted to use a local company to help me with a pigeon problem. One pesky blighter had taken to perching on the gable end of my roof and was messing down the front face of my newly painted white frontage. I had tried a pulsing machine plus even tried a home made scarecrow but to no avail. I contacted one company who professed to be local. They were going to charge £120 just to come out and survey the work. That seemed ridiculous when I had researched exactly what was needed. I was eventually referred to GC who responded immediately. They asked me to send pictures of the house frontage so that they could quote. Within days I was booked in to have an anti-perch device fitted. Graham, the company owner was fantastic, the work was completed in a totally professional way and the pigeon problem is now eradicated. GC are definitely local and are Wigston based. Other companies who claim to be local are part of a national franchise - be careful they will rip you off. I highly recommend GC for any pigeon problems - they cannot be faulted.

Graham and the team were reliable, helpful and very knowledgeable. Squirrels were in a very difficult location to reach, and thankfully made their own way out! But Graham made sure the hole was fixed once we confirmed they had left. Would use again 100%.

I thought I had a wasp nest in my garden ( nightmare )!. Called Graham & he came round within a couple of hours. Told me my wasps were in fact honey bees, so panic over ( sort of ). He was very professional , informative & reassuring. It was great he was local too. I would definitely highly recommend this company
Many thanks again Graham.

Graham made my partner feel at ease with the whole process, and maintained professionalism and empathy at all times. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for any squirrel removal services as following his visits they have not returned. Many thanks

Fantastic job! I was extremely pleased with Graham (Owner of GC Pest Control). He was professional, knowledgeable and came across as genuine. He puts the customer first and sets customers expectations well. We had a squirrel infestation issue and within 3 visits he managed to catch them all and block off the area which they were tunnelling through. I would definitely recommend Graham and GC Pest Control. 5 Stars
