If you treat the ground early in the Spring that should keep them away.
Last year I had a nest in the stone wall in front of the house, treated
the ground early and they didn't come back this year.

I had a nest of Bumblebees living under my front step all summer. Was
wishing they would go away but I didn't disturb them as I know they are
valuable to the environment. I did have to take out a couple individuals
who attacked me and my wife. Self defense.

I'm hoping they find a new home next year. My wife Marty has stated that
they won't be tolerated another year.
