Posted by Mike on August 23, 2006 From the Montgomery Advertiser comes a story about gigantic yellow jacket nests. By giant, I mean taking over the entire interior of a car.

The nests are thought to contain multiple queens and about 100,000 workers. So far, 16 have been sighted in Alabama.
Qu-oool! (gets stick to nest –
Giant supernests of flesh eating Vespula! Blossoming across the bible belt!! Now how am I NOT supposed to take this as a sign of intelligent design?
Nice to see that the animal mascot of my workplace (U. of Rochester) is thriving. The article also quotes wasp researcher Dr. Mike Goodisman of Georgia Tech, another place of which yellow jackets are emblematic.
As far as I know, Mike and I may be the only two people to have ever ground up specimens of our own university’s mascots.

Hey, I smashed a buckeye once. Does that count?
“I say nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.”
Of course, nobody ever listens to Ripley.
Holy crap! I live in Alabama (well, 2 miles from the state line) and am constantly wandering around in the woods. I guess I’ll have to keep an eye out for these… my water meter reader actually called me today to tell me about a yellowjacket nest in the water meter. I sure hope it isn’t too enormous!
