How to get rid of the OS without killing them?

Task: There is a large hornet's nest in the country toilet.
Required: Without killing the wasps, move the nest together with the wasps to another place - for example, in the forest.

Question: How and how can I reversibly put wasps to sleep right in the nest? It occurs to me to spray the nest with chloroform or ether, but I'm afraid that the wasps will have time to fly out or die. I read somewhere about carbon dioxide from a canister or fire extinguisher.

This is almost impossible, the nest is attached, and if you try to remove part of it, it will collapse. Theoretically, you can remove the nest at night (especially if the night is cold) in a bag and take it somewhere far away, but the wasps will still die being destroyed by predators.
It is easier (and safer for you) to treat the nest with insecticide...

......Or to the neighbor's toilet. Let me ask you: Why did the neighbors annoy you so shuffle.gifmuch ? It's hard to explain this love of wasps any other way.
