How can I repel wasps in the garden?

Question

Does hanging plastic bags of water repel wasps?

Answer 1

The plastic bag (Ziploc style) of water over your doorway will prevent flying pests from entering your home I have used this method for years with great success, but I have never heard of it being used outside though.  

Answer 2

I know that hanging inflated paper bags stops them from building nests. Perhaps it might keep them away, try it you have nothing to lose.

Answer 3

if you want to keep them away from you personally you can try drinking a teaspoon of cider vinegar in a glass of water everyday. they don't like the odour you give off. and no, you cant smell it on yourself. to keep them away from one end of the garden put a can of coke or something similar at the far end of the garden and they will stay at that end. hopefully.

Answer 4

The wasps are great for your garden.  They kill many of the insects that eat your plants.  I am very pleased to have lots of them in my garden, I don't use any pesticides and the wasps, along with birds and spiders etc.  keep the bugs from eating my plants.

Answer 5

Don't keep soft fruit trees. They love that stuff.

Keep a rollled up newspaper handy.
