Wasps have a knack for finding their way inside homes through a single window that's barely cracked open.
A lovely way to keep the dangerous insects from your home is to pop some herbs by your windows. Mike advised: "Planting certain herbs like basil, lavender, mint, rosemary, sage and thyme can be effective in keeping wasps and other pests away due to the essential oils released from the plants. Consider planting the herbs by your door or windows where wasps are most likely to enter."
"Use caulk, weather stripping, or wire mesh to create an effective barrier against the wasps," Mike said. 3. Spray a white vinegar solution A solution comprising a few drops of vinegar with one part dish soap is an "effective and natural anti-wasp solution".
