Hornets aren’t a frequent pest in the United Kingdom. However, they can cause issues in some locations, and their large size and strong sting makes them harmful to humans, especially when they can be found in large numbers.
Hornets can be difficult to distinguish from wasps. The most clear indication is the fact that hornets are social and live in large nests while wasps tend to be solitary. This means that if you find a large number of the insects, they may be hornets. Small numbers of hornets can be controlled on a DIY basis using spray insecticide carefully. However, this is dangerous due to the sting of the hornet. Hornets can sting several times without dying and their stings can cause allergic reactions in many people. These stings can be deadly in extreme cases.
For severe infestations or in situations where the nest is inaccessible the services of an expert pest control company should be sought. These companies have access to professional grade insecticides which are extremely effective on hornets. These insecticides may be delivered either by spray, a liquid application or in dust form. All of these methods will leave some residual effect which means that any hornets which were not present during the first application will be wiped out when they return to the nest. Pest control companies will also be able to eliminate the nest, which will stop hornets attempting to recolonise it.
