nest and the wasp population will increase dramatically. Looks a

night very soon. I'm not looking forward to it, but the constant
stream from a large population will effectively make a good portion of
the garden a no-go area since I have to cross their flight path


Even in your tight space I think I'd try and live with them, they are
not normally aggressive - even if you're crossing their flight path.
So long as you are not lingering in the flight path doing anything
noisy or sweaty, that might be seen by them as threatening you should
be OK. Later on of course you'll have to check those sticky cakes
before you pop them in your mouth {;~))
