There is a gap behind the pull out pins at the ROPS folding joint. It is unfortunately large enough for wasps to get in a build a nest.

Not something you want so close to the seat ....

Spray a foaming wasp spray inside the tubes, it will kill any wasp that may be inside there and also keep any new ones from building any nest in there till next year. Make it part of your yearly routine and you shouldn't have any problems. I have the same situation with the rops and the loader arms on my TN. Another thing would be to move the tractor more often if it sits for any length of time the wasp will build there.
