i looked at something called the waspinator which you can look up on google its basically a mimic of a wasps nest so in theory the wasps think there is a rival nest in the area and avoid the general proximity.i made my own out of a long brown paper bag which came with plain crisps in them from the local mercadonna.i put a plastic food bag inside which i inflated so the brown paper bag would keep its shape and a small weight to stop it blowing around.i have one tied on the pool ladders which attracted wasps but we get none now and another on the washing line.i have had them up several days now and there is a definate improvement however i think they are genrally avoiding an area of around five or six feet away from the mock nests so a few more will go up soon.hope this helps.if you try this would you please post back with results in case you can add any helpful information.
