Might sound like a silly question but want to make sure I don't get attacked! | Hi Emmaline
Not a silly question at all.
Simple solution is to place a container of some sort over the nest (jam jar, cup, yoghurt pot, whatever.) use the rim of the container to scrape it away so it drops into the container,slide a bit of cardboard over the top and dump the nest somewhere well away from the shed or house.

we tried this by blocking the gap at the top of the door and down the edge with an old net curtain and wedging the window shu, thought we'd won as hadn't seen it for a few days then when we went in there it must have been on guard nearby as whoosh it was in again worse than primevil

Found one in my shed last year, but never went back as was chased down the garden path by a big spider 
Actually i think we have 3 on the roof, but I believe they are not in use anymore. I figured it was a wasps nest. | | | |
