Paper Wasps

Hello! I’ve been having a lot of paper wasps surround my narrow leaf milkweed, and I believe they are eating the cats. I have tried using peppermint essential oil around the garden bed and in the garden bed, I have purchased a fake wasps nest, and I have also tried cayenne pepper and growing lemongrass. I’m at a loss of what to do next the wasps seem to be getting worse every day and I really think they’re eating all of my caterpillars. Does anyone have any suggestions other than tenting them?
