Remove the small wasp nest in the roof

No matter if small or large wasp nest ...

... with the yellow-black troublemakers there are a few things to consider. In principle, it is forbidden to remove the nests of many wasp species. Removal is only permitted if the animals pose an acute danger.

• First of all, it must be determined whether the wasp's nest poses a threat. If that is in the roof, there is usually no direct danger from it.

• If the attic is expanded and there are rooms directly under the attic, the situation is of course different. In this case, even a small wasp's nest can be a source of danger. To be on the safe side, you should describe the situation to the public order office and ask if you can remove the nest.

• If the office confirms that the situation is really dangerous, you can have the wasp's nest removed without hesitation.

• As long as the nest is still in the roof, you should stay away from the wasps. Even a small wasp's nest should not be splashed with water or hit with objects.
