Natural wasp repellent

Any recommendations for natural wasp repellents? I say natural because I am hoping it is something I will have in the house!

Google suggests a few herbs etc but hoping someone can point me in the direction of something that really does work

In Greece, waiters have burned dry coffee on the table in a little pot, not sure how effective it was though!

On holiday recently (UK), the beach side cafe had Waspinators - basically a decoy nest.

The theory being wasps don't congregate where other wasps have a nest.

It basically looks like a grey bag.

Did seem to work as I didn't see any wasps

Amazon have them - Waspaway Decoy Nest

Sorry don't know how to link on my mobile

Stop them coming into the house by giving them a saucer of jam outside. It keeps them happy and they stay outside.
