Wasp Nest Removal in Waltham Forest: what we see locally
Epping Forest, Lloyd Park, Highams Park, the Lee Valley and Walthamstow's long back gardens make Waltham Forest a busy borough for wasps. Nests appear in lofts, roof voids, air bricks, sheds and hedges from spring.
We're especially busy in Chingford, Highams Park and Walthamstow Village, where gardens back onto the forest and parks. The colony usually dies within a day or two of treatment.
In late summer, wasps become a nuisance around Walthamstow Market's fruit stalls, outdoor tables in Walthamstow Village and Leyton's Francis Road, and in gardens with fruit trees. A nest in a nearby roof or shed is usually the source.
