You can buy yellow jacket traps, but the attractant won't work on ordinary wasps.

But the time to stop them is now, before the queens pop out lots of babies.

We used to have wasp nests under our eaves every year. Then I sprayed Diazinon under the eaves one time. No more nests until we painted the house several years later & covered up the Diazonon. Of course, since it worked, they outlawed Diazinon. Don't know what would work now. Any insecticide that is hazardous to bees should work. Any beekeepers want to give us some help here?

Regarding yellow jackets, if your temps are getting over about 75 these days, get your yellow jacket traps out now, catch the queens & you will see a lot fewer yellow jackets in August.
