    is there any sort of candle or.. scent I can get to repel wasps? I seem to get 6-7 of them in my apartment every day this summer.. I either kill them or force them out of the apartment once I see them so it's not like i'm being attacked or anything I just don't want flying venom factories wandering around my tiny apartment unchallenged.
    I don't know what could be attracting them, the bin is covered.. the kitchen is clean and all fruit and veg are in the fridge. There's no fruit or any sort of food outside of the kitchen.

    now that I think about it... I suppose it might be the cinnamon scented candle I light in the evenings... the apartment is so small that the smell of that does linger into the next day... do wasps like cinnamon?

    Bounce Fabric Softener sheets are supposed to repel Wasps - though I never tried it myself.

    Cinnamon attracts bugs and flies but I'm not sure about wasps,

    Are they coming in via open window.

    Can some sort of fly screen be considered?

    Perhaps there is a hive around your apartment ..
