Wasp nest - what to do?

Hello everyone. We've discovered an active wasps nest right by our front door! They've made it in the air vent at ankle height, which actually vents into our bedroom, and we can hear them at night in bed, loudly rustling about with whatever it is they're doing!
I have two young children (6 and 7) and my husband is sensitive to wasp stings - he gets very itchy. So he wants them to be exterminated.
But I don't like to kill anything, not even mosquitoes!
Does anyone have any experience of how disruptive or aggressive they could become? At the moment they are busy going in and out, and not taking any notice of anyone being nearby. But my concern is, that as we come in and out of the door, and it gets later and later in the summer / autumn, that they may become problematic.
Any advice much appreciated - thank you.
