Wasp Nest Removal in Greenwich: what we see locally
Greenwich Park, Oxleas Wood, Shooters Hill, Charlton Park, Avery Hill and Eltham's large gardens make Greenwich a busy borough for wasps. Nests appear in lofts, under roof tiles, in sheds and hedges from spring and grow through summer.
We're especially busy in Eltham, Shooters Hill, Blackheath Park and Charlton, where mature gardens and woodland give queens plenty of places to build. Our technicians treat the nest entrance safely, and the colony dies within a day or two.
