Wasp Nest Removal Gillingham
A cavity wall behind nearly every inter-war semi in Gillingham is as good a nest site as it is a mouse's route in.
Wasp Nest Removal in Gillingham
The same cavity wall construction that gives mice an easy corridor gives a queen wasp a dry, sheltered void to start a nest in each spring - a small gap at an airbrick or meter box is all that's needed to get in.
A nest built inside a cavity wall can be harder to see from outside than one in an open eave, so the first sign is often just a steady line of wasps at one small gap rather than anything visible.
Local pattern
A Cavity Wall Nest Looks Like Nothing From Outside
Where wasps are seen going in and out of a single small gap - an airbrick, a meter box surround, a gap in pointing - rather than an obvious open nest, that's usually a cavity wall nest and treated the same way, at the entry point.
Because the construction is so consistent across the street in this type of housing, it's worth checking whether a neighbour has noticed similar activity, though each nest is still a separate, single-visit job.
Treatment doesn't require opening up the cavity wall - it's dealt with from the entry point the wasps are using, in one visit.

We just see wasps going into a small gap by the airbrick - is that definitely a nest?
Very likely, yes - a cavity wall nest often shows no more than a steady line of wasps at one small gap, and it's treated at that entry point.
Do you need to open up the wall to treat it?
No - it's treated from the entry point the wasps are using, without needing to open the cavity.
