Excavation Ban in the Thermal Spring Protection Zone

Article 88 paragraph 1 of the Leukerbad building and zoning regulations prohibits excavation and other structural changes in the spring protection zones of the thermal water springs without a prior geological survey.

Before I treat a ground nest, I therefore check whether the plot lies within such a protection zone.

On site

Treatment Through the Entry Hole

Without a prior geological survey, digging is not permitted in the protection zone. In my view, that is not necessary for a wasp nest anyway. I treat it there through the entry hole, without disturbing the ground, and afterwards check whether wasps are still flying in and out.

On site, I identify the nest as I would for any Wasp nest removal in Upper Valais, just with the restriction from the spring protection zone. You can read how I deal with rodents and cockroaches in catering businesses on Pest control Leukerbad.
