ta for all the tips, but before I could try any Retired Father was informed of the problem and turned up with his lump hammer & a spade. He hit the bird box with the lump hammer
(the mad fool!), some wasps flew out, then he buried the bird box (which had a proper wasp nest inside it), very deep in the border ... so that's put paid to 'em

Use the wasp spray. The method my brother and I used (when we were bored kids) was to throw rocks at the huge nest in the tree. Run about 10 feet and drop to the ground and lay still and hold our breath. We never got stung (well maybe we did). Eventually we knocked down the nest. Oh what fun in the good ole days!
