I am trying something called BeeeFREE. I have a package of 2 simulated wasp nests that I just hung outside - one in the front and one in the back of my house. If it works, I'd like to know where I can order more. This package was a gift and the store is too far away to shop there.

Please let me know if you know of a web site for these.

Thank you.

Hi,
Don't know if this will help in your situation, but my hubby always sprays WD 40 where ever wasps are building a nest and they vanish - don't know why but they packup and go!

Thanks for the info. Guess I forgot to post some of the details. It's a portable gas grill but it is kept in the same area so I'll look at the link for some wasp repelling plants. Meanwhile, I used my trusty old fly swatter and got em. So far, they're not back but it's only a matter of time.

Is this one of those big hearths? Or a little (regular) one? IF it is the big permanent grill stove (like made of stone) you could do some landscaping around the back of it (not in front of the hearth) to accomodate wasp repelling plants, or one had a suggestion for hanging a balled-up paper sack to imitate a nest.
