I hang a fake wasp nest in my yard, it keeps wasps away but doesn't impact honeybees. (I recently bought a nice looking wicker one, but used to just hang a brown bag that looked like a nest)

(I recently bought a nice looking wicker one, but used to just hang a brown bag that looked like a nest) Thanks! Seems like a reasonable approach. We had thought about doing this, though the only wasps we have around are relatively harmless mud daubers.
- Wowfunhappy 6y agoWow, that actually works?!?
- jb775 6y agoYeah it works for me. 2 years ago I ran the lawnmower over a ground nest (I didn't realize was there) and got stung 15+ times...I did a bunch of research and read that wasps will avoid competition and build their nest at least 100-300ft from the closest large nest. Last year there were no nests that I was aware of in my yard.
