Once you know which type of wasp to target, the next step is to use the correct control method.
- For paper wasps, there are commercially available sprays at hardware stores around the country. The important things to note are not to get too close (these sprays can go up to four metres), and to do it at dusk once the wasps have returned to their nests. If you are unsure where the nests are, you can usually follow the wasp to it, as they don't travel too far away.
- Vespex is a protein-based bait which is suitable for use on the vespula wasp species. This is usually done at landscape scale as a small tub of bait can cover a large area. You don't need to find the nests as the wasps carry the bait home with them. Vespex is not at all attractive to bees. If there is a problem in your area you can learn all about the use of vespex here. You will need to be an approved user - a short 10-minute video course is all that is required. Vespex is not suitable for paper wasps as they prefer live bait. You can also contribute to our fight against wasps here: givealittle.co.nz...

When the sun is blazing down, the rubber shoe can take you from the morning stroll to get a paper, the beach, and then on to a bar. But how pricey are these items getting - what did you pay back in the day, and what's the most expensive one you've seen in the beach boutiques nowadays?
We want to know what a day at the beach with the classics costs us.
So roll up, roll up ... there's nothing like licking a scoop of ice cream during the summer. How much do you pay at home, and when you are away? What is the most expensive ice cream you've bought on holiday?
