I live in a bungalo (50 years old) with a couple of dormer bedrooms
(10 years old) that were added by the previous owner.
From the outside i can see the wasps going in under the slates on the
verticle wall on the sides of the dormer windows.

Inside the house if i put my ear to the wall I can hear a loud buzzing
noise all along the inside if the wall.

Inside the roof void I need to lay some electrical cable ready for
when the electrician is coming over next week to fit some lights.

Over the past few weeks the wasps inside the house have been getting
bigger & bigger but for the past couple of days I've not seen any
inside the house.



The bigger wasps may well be queens looking for suitable hibernation sites.
If you can still hear buzzing, or detect activity, then, obviously, the nest
is still active. If you consult Yellow Pages, you should find a choice of
contractors able to SAFELY destroy and remove the nest.
