Someone's nesting in my shed!

I've just found these two little nests in my shed! How can I tell whether they're wasps or bees? Are they something to be worried about, or should I leave well alone?

Looks like wasps are at home. Such beautiful material they create. If you can save it at some point, it's great for art work. If the nest or the wasps aren't in a position to bother anyone, I would leave it.

Wasps or bees, they're pollinators, so make them welcome.

Unless someone using the shed has an allergy, they won't be any bother ... we had a similar one in our little 6x4 shed a few years ago ... actually, as soon as the gardening season started and we were in and out of the shed Mrs Queen wasp must've decided that it wasn't the nice quiet place she though it was, and upped and left.

We leave them as long as they are not going to bother children, we had to remove one last year from the box hedge next to the BarBQ area

I have had this happen and decided to get rid of it, as I want to be able to use my shed without getting on the wrong side of wasps. I removed the nest with a broom - if you can wait until the queen is not at home, it will be safer!
