Lewisham Wasp Control operates 7 days a week, with a large staff of technicians used to working in the Lewisham area and liaising with local customers. There are no wasp problems we are not prepared to handle, whether it is a single small hive in a customer's home or multiple hives over a large property.
Before you have to make any decisions regarding an extermination, you can always have a professional evaluation of your wasp problem done and receive a quote without any obligation to use our services. For customers who may not be sure whether or not their property is suffering from an infestation or customers who want to know more about their problem and their options before making a decision, this makes it easier than ever to receive a professional opinion.
It only takes one wasp hive on a property to constitute a significant infestation, as a single nest can house even as many as 20,000 wasps, and they will cover a wide area looking for food and bringing to back to their hive. If you notice numerous wasps coming in and out of your property, it is a good indicator that there might be a hive nearby, although it is not recommend that you follow them back to their nest, as this can be treated as an act of aggression by the insects.
The most troublesome aspect of any wasp infestation is the chance of being stung, a chance that rises the larger the nest gets, the closer you are to it, and the later on in the season you are. Wasps can and will swarm in large numbers when they attack, as their goal is to overwhelm the person they see as a threat with huge numbers of stings, and should you be attacked it is vital that you get as far away from the wasps as fast as possible rather than trying to swat them, as this will only draw more wasps to your location and make their stinging more persistent.
The only way to deal with wasps other than an extermination is to avoid them entirely, but this is often impossible, since the wasps will often go after human food or forage in areas where humans are, and even on larger properties a wasp hive will rarely keep to itself. Pets and children can also be at risk in these situations, as they are often less wary about disturbing the insects, and a rapid extermination is always the best way to ensure that they do not become victims of wasp attacks.

Our treatment typically involves spraying the nest or nest with an intense insecticide, applied directly into the mouth of the hive itself. Our technicians have the protective gear necessary to get close to the hives, which allows them to deliver the spray in a high enough concentration to render a nest completely toxic to the wasps within. We typically recommend that you leave the nest alone overnight, giving the insecticide time to completely eliminate the wasps.
