Send them metta and offer to escort them out. I do this with insect visitors, sometimes it works. Otherwise I catch and release them as Aloka describes. If you move the glass very slowly they don't notice.

Re: Wasp tips
Greetings,
Good luck with deterring their presence.
Metta,
Paul.
Good it's not a hive, because if it was it's one of those situations which would get much worse before it gets better. A stitch in time saves nine, and all that.
Good luck with deterring their presence.
Metta,

Re: Wasp tips
Finding that many wasps inside your home is not entirely normal IMO. I'd go looking for a hidden nest.
If you really don't want to kill the wasps in the nest, you can get a very firm bag, bag the nest at night, then throw it out your window while briskly driving on an abandoned highway. That bag has to be killer secure. The wasps will abandon the ruined nest and will seek out a new home. Having a nest of bees in your car isn't the best idea though. My dad used to bag wasp nests and then throw them on the bonfire. So they can be securely bagged, it's just a matter of how. Also, when you dispose of the nest, obviously you'd make sure no one was around.
Likely if you haven't found it though, that means they're not nesting in a "usual" spot. They've likely worked into a nook somewhere. Bagging the nest presumes a "classic" wasp nest that is easily visible and reachable.

What is the Uncreated?
Sublime & free, what is that obscured Eternity?
It is the Undying, the Bright, the Isle.
It is an Ocean, a Secret: Reality.
Both life and oblivion, it is Nirvāṇa.

My go-to for bugs in the house is this product below. Catch and release, just gotta be sneaky and quick! Then figure out where they're getting in and plug the holes.
