Wasps

For the last week or so, my garden has been over run with them. I think they are attracted to the neighbours tree on the boundary. I can't see where they go at sunset so can't find a nest

Any suggestions for how to cope, there are so many buzzing round my washing line, and the patio. It's really uncomfortable to be outside at the moment.

All you can do is ignore them. They’ll be gone in a couple of weeks, they die when the weather starts getting colder.

Yes they'll go, but so will the weather.

I've used washing up liquid in a spray bottle for blackfly. Would something similar work for wasps?

I just want to enjoy my day off in the sun.

Wasp trap.

Genius. Thank you.

Don't know why I didn't think of it myself.
