Wasps!!! - Got a nest in the compost heap right by the back gate. Kids no doubt will find it. Also next to our bee “meadow”, so hope can only kill wasps not the bees.

Make an essential oil bomb of peppermint oil and eucalyptus oil, wasps hate the smell of both and both mixed will Fukem off in a safe manner.
I’d suggest you use a couple of garden night torches but fill the tanks with the mix of essential oils and the fuel, you’re gonna need to test the mix a few times to get the highest pungency with a good burn. Then deploy them, keep refilling the tanks all the time and you’ll find they move on.
I use this mix in the attic by way of an oil burner, after a week they’ve gone.
Please don’t kill them as we need all the pollinators we can get.
