    Bees and wasps have very different attractors. For the wasps it might be worth spraying the house for spiders - their main food source for their babies. For the bees, finding out if it is a plant attracting them is a good suggestion. Alternatively, you could find a plant they like, and put it somewhere out of the way to redirect them that way.

    Thanks, lol Teirae... you will be screaming a fia rbit when you come to visit lol hope i havent put you off!!!

    Cquin.. What was the spray called?? Is it just a regualr one you can buy from woolies or something???

    I am not sure if they are native ones ro not.. and there arnt any shrubs or bushes anywhere near the door, so i dont think thats it.. spiders yes.. so i might try that idea!!

    I think we have to have a good look for the nest, there would have to be one somewhere!!!

    Thanks again!!

    For the bees, have a look in the yellow pages or online and see if there are any local bee keepers who would be willing to relocate them for you. Sometimes they will do this for free, as they get a new hive out of it,, othertimes they might charge a small fee. But it never hurts to give them a ring and see. The problem is that you will not get rid of them unless you get rid of the queen bee.

    For the wasps, you really need to find the nest and remove or relocate it. Again, you won't get rid of them until you can locate where they are living. Sometimes they nest in the guttering or other small tucked away places in and around the house.

    You last option is an exterminator, but they can be $$$$
