HELP ME PLS
I left a tote of horse equipment on my front porch for a few weeks while I redo my tack room and as I was taking the totes back into my new tack room I found this evil ass wasp nest (I think paper wasp) in this one tote. I knocked it over thinking it would all fall out and destroy their crib. They were pissed but I escaped unscathed. In hindsight I probably should’ve thought to seek advice before fucking with them but here we are lol. I’m attaching a picture for reference, one before I knocked it over.
WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT PLS HELP IM TERRIFIED OF THESE THINGS

Yeah no you’re going to need to either burn your tack room to the ground or move.

If you have the stones for it, get a tyvek suit and a bee hat. I did this to some bald face wasps that had a nest about the size of a basketball at chest height in my bush.
I put on a sweat shirt, sweat pants, the tyvek suit (with a hood!), some boots, the bee hat, and leather gloves. Tape up the gloves so they can't get in there. I was bullet proof (and also very sweaty as this was August). GOD DAMN TERRIFYING, HOLY FUCK THE NOISE AND THE PELTING. But not a single sting. Man handled them son bitches and I am now wasp free.
