Hello, About 3 months ago we found a nest attached to our barn (gueppes) - if you call the fireman yourself then you will have to pay to have them removed - but if you call your local Mairie, tell them your problem then they will call the firemen and the Commune will pay the bill!! It is not widely known, I just so happened to be in the Mairie's office one day when the secretary was dealing with a local who called the firemen first and was then demanding the Mairie pay the bill (ah, too late)......... hope this helps
