Giant wasp nest found in loft, buzzing with 20,000 insects

This was the moment a "beast" of a wasp's nest, swarming with 20,000 of the stinging insects, was found in the loft in a suburban house in Berkshire last Thursday (September 13).

Pest controller Shane Jones was called to the family home after a mum was repeatedly stung by 30 wasps in her bathroom.

The woman was confused as she could find no signs of the wasps outside her house.

Shane spotted wasps buzzing around the bathroom extractor fan and climbed up into the lof.

There, he discovered the bulging giant nest wrapped around a duct pipe.
