Make sure they are not trying to come in to build a nest or use an old one.
When we moved in here I couldn't understand why I kept getting so many of them around the window. Everyday I was bashing two or three of them to bits with a dustpan. Then we discovered that there was an old nest inside the box thingy where the blind rolls up and they were trying to recativate it.
We had to remove the old nest and then get some special stuff and mix with water and spray all over the window, wall, blinds etc.
