‘All I can hear is buzzing’

coming out of everywhere.”

When the Examiner visited yesterday the living room floor and window ledge were covered in hundreds of wasps.

Ms Johnson, a support worker, said she had contacted KNH, Kirklees Council pest control and other council services. But so far, she says, nothing has been done.

She said: “I’ve been reporting the problem since July and nothing has been done. They only came and looked last week and said they couldn’t do anything.

“It’s rubbish. I have a young child and there’s an infestation and they haven’t even made an attempt to get rid of the wasps or give me somewhere to live temporarily.”

In the meantime, Ms Johnson has been trying in vain to slow the stream of insects by taping up gaps and spraying the wasps with insecticide.

While the living room door is kept shut the insects have managed to get into other rooms, Ms Johnson said.

She says she and her son have been stung while baby Ryiesha has been stung all over.

Ms Johnson said: “It’s irritating but I’m worried for my daughter.”

She added: “I woke up and found them in my bedroom stuck to the window.

“All I can hear is buzzing and I can feel the wasps touching me.”

The Examiner has contacted KNH and is awaiting a response.
