Anyone know of a way to deter Wasps from building nests under deck?

We have a covered porch and wasps & yellow jackets keep building nests under the Adirondack chairs and wicker furniture. Any suggestions other than checking and spraying weekly?

Hi Anne, Do you have a grey plastic bag, If so you have the answer. Blow it up to the size of a large football and tie a knot in it to secure. Cut off excess and throw away. Stick a loop on top of ball (this is to represent a nest). Hang up on your Porch and the wasps will not come by as they fear it could be a competitors nest.. It is possible to by Decoys Nests from Plant centres and in England they cost about £9.....Good luck!
