All suggestions welcome, A.S.A.P. Thanks

Killing wasps is fairly easy to do.
However bees are protected by Irishlaw and although they can be relocated it is an offence to kill them. If you have honey bees for example a beekeeper from FIBKA (the national beekeping association )or a regional bee keeping association may only be too happy to reclaim them and relocate them. Bumble bees or solitary bees are protected as an endangered insect.
