ISO: Tips Dealing with the Wasps in the Treasure Valley

There is no shortage of wasps and bees in this area, so how do you deal?

I have a hard time with bees or wasps, I don't like the buzzing and the wasps can be so mean. Wasps, also known as yellowjackets and hornets or at least they are similar. I don't mind regular honey bees but when they start getting to aggressive it's annoying and cumbersome when trying to be outside.

Many people have tried different ways to get rid of these things.

• Raid
• Dish soap and water
• Fake Wasp Nests
• Removing the nests

Are there any more tricks out there? What has worked for you or someone you know? According to naturallivingideas.com says plants like spearmint, thyme, citronella, eucalyptus, and wormwood serve as natural wasp deterrents.
