If you have a nest and want to get rid of them (not sure why anyone would not want to) the best thing I have seen to get them is Dawn dishwashing liquid mixed with water.  Mix (slowly stir the mixture as you don't want it to foam up) about 1 part Dawn to 2 or 3 parts water in a large glass and douse it on them.  They will hit the ground and most will be dead when they hit the ground.  I've used it several times and have not had one fly after throwing it on them yet.  Had a few that were not dead when they hit the ground but they didn't last long and most hit the ground dead.  It's absolutely amazing.  Make sure you use the orignal Dawn liquid.  It's blue and thicker than the other types.  I don't know what it has in it but will kill wasps as soon as it gets on them.  It's also good for killing fleas and ticks on dogs.  It will kill lice too.
