You have a pile of jackets on your grill and they are building nests?
The soap was to clean the jackets? If there are actually bees in your
grill were you trying to clean them?


Spaying a soap solution coats the nest and kills the wasps inside.



Anything I can put in there that they won't like being around?


Turn on the grill. Even if you have a pile of red jackets on the grill
they'll burn up. If they are actually wasps or some other kind of bee,
they don't like flames and one fully heated grill will do them in.


I'm thinking they are in the bottom section of the grill, not the upper
cooking portion. That is the only way this makes sense to me.


No, the nest is above the grill.

I guess they like "their space." :-)

I put in a cotton ball soaked in White camphor.
