How do you keep hold of mud dawbers away from your house?
Answers: Man, I have those little suckers adjectives over the place.
The "mud" is like cement -- difficult to pry bad. And I NEVER catch them at it.
You could spray next to an organic pesticide but it may sabotage the siding. Besides if the daubers build up close to the window, spraying is stinky.
Try your local agra or extension bureau. They may have biddable advice.

Why would you want to they get through spiders almost exclusively. and in the fall over hose the nest to soften it and rake up it off. The mud dawbers largely are a very quiet wasp and not likely to sting you. I one-sidedly dont care for spiders so I similar to mud dawbers.
A Mud Daubers favorite spider is the Black Widow. Which would you rather enjoy around? They are docile and beneficial little wasps. If you want them to go away next make sure you don't enjoy any water pooled up anywhere. Most plausible they are after water and soil to build their nurseries. What ever you do, please don't assassinate them.
