If you're tired of discovering wasp nests on your home, don't call the exterminator or use chemical sprays to remove them -- prevent them from being built in the first place. An all-natural device called a "wasp deterrent" looks like a pretty outdoor lantern, but it's actually designed to play on a wasp's natural territorial instinct to avoid building a new nest where one already exists. The fake nest will keep wasps about 200 feet away, so place a few around the house in the spring to prevent nests from being built.
