Wasps Help me please!

You can buy these "fake" wasp nests... its supposed to work. I guess the wasps see the fake nest and think that there is already a nest there and they move on to start their own nest someplace else..
I'm going to try them this year..

My girls eat wasps, worms, ants, and oh yeah a small snake once. I would just let them deal with them they are probably good protein

My birds eat absolutely everything. I've watched them pick a wasp off a bush and beat it on the ground, then swallow it. No ill effects and they've been doing it for years. Same thing with Black Widow Spiders. Awesome pest control!

I bought something called Poultry Protector (think I got it from McMurray or Shop the Coop). It is non-toxic and I spray it on my girls and in the coop to protect from mites. Kills fleas and ticks too! I found a wasp nest in the top of the coop and didn't want to spray a pesticide. This worked! They crawled out and died! My girls won't eat wasps. Active ingredient is potassium Sorbate. Also contains: water, yeast and citric acid.

They are crazy. If you let them near a bee hive, they will eat them all.

Who told you that? i have 100's of guineas at any given time and i have never seen them bothering my bees.
