A huge wasp nest discovered by exterminator John Birkett at the unused spare bedroom of a house in Winchester. According to the Hampshire Chronicle:
“I opened the door and I just couldn’t bloody believe it,” Mr Birkett said. “It was the most incredible thing I’ve seen. “I got dressed up like a spaceman and tried to destroy as many as I could with the workers flying around the room.” The nest split in half during the struggle, releasing 2,000 wasps. “I was covered in them,” he said. “The room was completely full of wasps.”

This was all over the inter webs on Tuesday!
a) ‘I just couldn’t bloody believe it’ is the perfect quintessential British reaction
b) WTF was he thinking going in there? Shut the door and run!
“I got dressed up like a spaceman..”
He was just longing for the opportunity.
Did the noises himself while he was at it.
He was the exterminator. He wasn’t getting paid to run.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Mad Buzz.
Shoulda shot them all with a bee-bee gun
Only wasps can afford a spare bedroom these days.
Is it a bee and bee for w.a.s.p’s?

Holy Hell. I wouldn’t take on 2000/5000 wasps on my own. As someone said: shut door. Run.
Looks like in the Sandman when Constantine’s ex-girlfriend is found to be addicted to sleep sand and her house has been taken over by horrible, horrible dreams. *shudder*
