If they are still building it but not yet living in it, knock it down at night. That should encourage them to build it somewhere else.
I knocked it down with a jet of water. I think they are trying to rebuild, so I'll knock down the successor tomorrow.
Hopefully they'll get the hint.
There's plenty of eaves on the house they can build their hive under. But the eave right above the mailbox, right by the front door that sticks in the humidity so I have to slam it, is exactly the wrong location.
Sorry little wasps. I know you have to survive as well, but it's just too risky to people if you build right by my front door.

My son stepped on a wasp today and got stung on the bottom of his foot on the arch. He was looking for the wasp afterwards to see if it was okay. Oh, vegans.
What exactly is the risk?
Getting stung multiple times maybe?
Pfft. Wasps build nests outside my door every year. I have yet to be stung. Contrary to the belief of humans, wasps really aren't all that interested in them. Go about your business. They will go about theirs.
