Wasp Repellent

[rabbitlady4433]

I have a buck that was recently stung in the eye by a wasp? I'm assuming because it's wasps I've been seeing near the pen. After a week of treating and what not, I do believe he'll be blind in that eye, but he's doing well now and I think will be in the clear. I am a little hesitant to spray wasp killer around the pens, I don't like to use chemicals around the buns. Does any one have any ideas of a repellent of sorts to make them go away? I have knocked down and dispensed of the nests, but they don't seem to be going away....

Ah, poor guy

I've read that sweet almond oil works as a repellent. You can buy it by the gallon from soap making outlets and just "paint" it onto your stalls.
