I guess that your window doesn't shut tight, so the person who told you to caulk all around your window is correct.
If you go to a hardware store, they will show you all kinds of window caulking. If you cannot afford that, get DUCT tape and run it around all the edges and tiny openings in your windows. I stuff cotton in first each year when I put in my A.C. for the summer.
I live in an old farm house and the windows are not square, so cotton and duct tape fill up the holes that the hornets could get in.

We do have a tree outside and last summer we had a wasps nest there. At first we did try to get rid of it with water from hose pipe. No luck and THEY got angry. So we call to the council and in 24 hours it was over. So my advice: don't try this at home. give a go to the professionals!

Go at the store and buy the foam for the wasps. When you spray the nest it has to be dark outside because the wasps wait until dark to return to the nest. I sprayed one I had but waited until 9:OO PM until it was really dark and then I knew all the wasps were in the nest.

Console yourself with the fact that they will soon disappear now the weather is getting colder, and I understand that they don't return to old nests (though the eggs which will turn into next year's wasps must be in the old nest, I suppose).

I get the occasional nest in my attic, and they seem to get into the bedrooms through light fittings. If you can seal the one in your room up with something which won't damage the ceiling (Pritt "non-sticky" adhesive and tissue paper, maybe), that might stop them.

Hi, 'phone your local council, tell them it's an emergency , they should have an environmental health department or pest control unit that will come and safely remove the wasps nest for you within 24 hours.

once you flow the nest it in a good number of cases dies in any case. that isn't something more effective than a brood chamber for the queen wasp and something else of the wasps are her infertile daughters. the staff do not lay eggs themselves. Use the spray and be careful now to not get stung.

whoa fked up.
first thing id do would be find how theyre getting in and tape it up. maybe put some plastic sheeting around the walls and floors to seal yourself in / seal them out.
you can get insect poison powder that contaminates more of them once one of them comes in contact with it. so id maybe put some of that in the corners/ round the skirting boards on their side of the plastic. soon as i could after that id fk a big stone at the nest and run. or sprinkle some poison on the nest when theyre sleeping ... see how the little fkers like it then. or petrol and ignite the little sh-ts.

If you your local council they will send someone aropund to deal with it... I had one recently and they smoke them out so be sure to keep all doors and windows closed as the wasps will be mad as hell when they emerge

Hope that helps you

they have probably found a way in through the roof and your electrical system. Camphor is a great irritant and will keep them out of your room until they get removed place a mothball under your bed or in your light fixture on the ceiling.
