How can I prevent wasps from building nexts in my cedar bluebird house? I sprayed the whole house w/pepper tea which did not discourage them, and have blocked all entrances w/steel wool, but they are still getting in.
Thanks,
Kathy

I don't have this problem but my first thought would be to apply a thin layer of vaseline to the top of the bird house to prevent them from attaching their nest. Other ideas?
