I DO wonder because either the same mud dauber has been making it's nest on my porch for the past 10 years or it's offspring have adopted the location as their nest site. They are more than welcome and quite fascinating either way.
The mud dauber nest is one of the most complex insect nests in existence. It only takes 3 weeks to build a mud dauber nest, fill it with food, and lay the eggs that will hatch in the spring.
Mud dauber wasp only has one predator and that is the bird.
there predators are birds, anolis lizards, and jumping spiders when they mate the female will kill the male and eat him -bryan300 any Q talk 2 me at my home pg at roblox.com go 2 people and searh bryan300 They are also preyed upon by the mud dauber wasp. One species of mud dauber, the blue mud dauber, preys on black widows almost exclusively in fact.
Mud Daubers are a kind of wasp that rarely stings, and they are good for keeping away spiders. On the rare occasion one does sting, remove the stinger with tweezers, then apply tobacco to the site. The tobacco will cause the swelling to go down and will provide some pain relief.

Mud daubers live for a total of one year. Mud daubers are slender wasps that are known for eating black widow spiders.
The phrase "keep your dauber up and your gown down" is often interpreted as a humorous or lighthearted reminder to maintain a positive attitude ("keep your dauber up") while also being mindful of one's modesty or decorum ("your gown down"). The term "dauber" typically refers to a person's spirits or enthusiasm, suggesting that one should stay cheerful and optimistic. Overall, it encourages a balance between having a good outlook and behaving appropriately in social situations.
Mud daubers are solitary wasps, so it is very unlikely that they will sting you (unless you do something like trap one in your hand). Unlike hornets and yellow jackets, mud daubers do not defend their nests.
the longest one found was 12 feet long!!! no joke!
some live in regular housing but the majority of the population lives in mud housing. it is one of the poorest countries in the world.

I do not know when you posted this, but I will answer anyway. If the wasp has just covered the hole with mud, it sounds like you have a type of mud dauber. They are not typically aggressive. It is likely that if you should clean the bumpers out, another one - or the same one - will come around again and cover the hole up. I would leave it - others would clean it out and poison the area. Insecticides just aren't my style.
