It's probably not much of an idea to destroy a wasps' nest in your garage by means of fire, especially when the garage is attached to your house.

Fire started in garage to destroy wasps’ nest has tragic result

Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service are urging residents not to battle wasp nests with fire.
This follows a blaze in a garage in Bletchley, which was severely damaged yesterday as a result of attempting to destroy a nest.
The first floor of the house was also damaged by the smoke.
Paramedics treated two men who were suffering from the effects of breathing in smoke.
