    Hi,
    I noticed a wasp nest in garden shed today. It's small but i want to get it removed as we have a baby in our house.

    Can any of you recomend a good, cheap removal company in dublin and how much approx should this cost?

    Thanks

    Most diy/hardware shops have it.think its Raid

    Or the way I do it pour a bit of petrol over a rag place in a bin liner and in late eve knock it into bag and tie knot.
    Bye bye waps.

    Thanks for all the replies. Thinking I might drop into Woodies and get a can of spray. Sheds not far from the house so i'll be ready to run for cover if I need.

    yup as said most diy.
    just make sure its dark when you are doing it and they should be quiet one or two will prob be around the mouth.
    dont use a flash light either ;)

    burning as above is a better way of curing the problem or a bucket of water,as it will kill everything straight away where the powder could leave a few half dead and angry
