The fight against wasps in the country

First, many with a grin look at how hornets or wasps begin to equip their dwelling in the attic or under the roof of their country house. But everything ends after the first attack of these insects, when the owners after painful bites with screams run away into the house. Well, if you still normally carry them, and in fact there are also suffering from allergies , to whom the poison acts very hard. Choking, swelling of the bite and a strong swelling of the respiratory tract - that's what contact with the wasps leads to.

To get rid of wasps in the country is also necessary for other reasons. Flying insects happen in different places, visiting garbage cans and other places of storage of waste, sit down on decaying fruits and vegetables. Not surprisingly, they are considered carriers of intestinal infections, along with indoor flies and cockroaches. Fans of grapes and other sweet berries also suffer from invasion of wasps, which can damage a significant part of the crop. The pests damage the skin and gnaw out the holes in the fruit to sweeten the sweet stuffing. It is necessary to burst one berry, and insects instantly attack the rest, turning ripe gorgeous bunches into a miserable kind.

What to eradicate wasps in the country?

The best way to destroy aspen nests is to spend the early spring when they are still asleep. Examine the barns, the roof of the house, the attic, the veranda , any holes under the slate. If the dwelling of insects is found, immediately burn it, not ignoring even the small ones. The surviving female will easily continue the wasp family and return the population one year to the previous level. It would be good to treat such places with kerosene or various household chemical reagents such as "Sinuzan" or "Sipaz-Super".

It is much worse to fight with wasps in the summer, insects are active and can give the "aggressor" a rebuff. We'll have to wait for the night and act with the flashlight. But to protect against possible bites, you should dress in tight clothes, cover the face with a net like beekeepers, pulling it over your head over your hat. Only after this, it is possible to start destroying the wasps at the cottage, separating the nest and throwing it into the fire.

In the question, than to poison wasps in the country, helps the garden sprayer. If you get to a narrow place and remove the nest is difficult, then treat it with a solution of Master 250, Carbophos, Actellik or another similar insecticide, sprinkling their house with jets of poison. Wet insects crawl inside and poison the entire population. The same solution works well on earthen wasps. Do not dig a nest at the risk of being bitten, pour it inside until the water is poured out and in time everything will be over. The second way is to treat insecticide piece of tin, glass or ceramic tiles, putting on them to attract attention sweet bait (jam or jam). Master 250 is good because it refers to encapsulated means. He does not die from the wasp immediately, having managed to carry the microcapsules of the poison inside its nest.

Aerosols are sold in cans for combating wasps and other harmful insects of "Prima", "Dichlophos", "Mosquito" and others. Spray them must be extremely cautious, resorting to the security measures that are listed above. But some people do not trust chemical drugs, so their struggle with wasps in the country is to use traps or scaring devices. How effective are the models of aspen nests, it is necessary to check in practice. Their manufacturers assure that insects do not tolerate competitors and, seeing a dummy, they will not settle near.

Traps can be bought either in the store or try to do it yourself. The simplest is made from a plastic bottle, in which a hole about 8 mm in diameter is cut. Inside the sweet lure (jam or honey diluted with water, beer) is poured and the "device" is hung at the site of the pest dislocation. The essence of the method is that the insect gets inside to regale sweets, but back it can not find an outlet, drowning through time in sweet syrup. The struggle with the wasps at the dacha is not such a simple occupation. But if you want, you can either completely get rid of them or reduce the insect population to a minimum level, using one of the methods listed by us.
