Everyone in my office is talking about the burrowing destruction done by the enormous cicada killing wasps that have appeared in the last few years. Do you have any suggestions as to control? Thanks in advance!

Hi, Because cicada killer wasp are considered to be benficial insects suggestions for control that use some type of insecticide are not in my recomendations. I really don't know how to discourage their burrowing activity in any other way.
