Anyone else have issues with wasps?

As soon as it gets warm and I stop it seems like the wasps are drawn to my truck. At first I thought it was the sweetness of the soap from the truck wash but even after weeks I feel like they come hovering around searching every crevice for a place to nest. Thinking of getting some wasp spray but wasnt sure if there might be better options out there.

one came in my truck all huge with the 2 legs hanging down, I very rarely talk to myself but I said out loud, “oh hell no” it left

Clean the bugs off your truck every time you stop

I have found if you drive a truck they flock to you

I work around Wasps all the time at car lots, biggest thing is to not panic and don't SWAT. I got stung once or twice a year, just can't avoid it.

I usually use peppermint and clove oil. Keeps most bugs away mix it in a little spray bottle with some unscented soap if you can find it or diluted Vaseline and water. Spray it around all of your entry points.

Wasps are drawn to the dead bugs and stuff they can scavenge since they are carnivorous. They’re also drawn to heat, so a large vehicle baking in the sun is perfect. Learned this after to moving to AZ, bees are the same way.

They absolutely love bug guts. I always clean the backs of my mirrors to keep them away from my windows.
