Now It’s Radioactive Wasps

Radioactive Wasp Nest Discovered Near South Carolina Nuclear Weapon Facility

Just when you thought it was safe to hang around a Superfund site…

They don’t know, for sure, where the radioactive waste came from, but there it was, sitting cheek by jowl with a “nuclear weapons facility” from the 1950s–and there was the nest, full of radioactive wasps. Authorities had to spray them, cart them away, and dispose of them as radioactive waste.

Does anybody know what happens if you’re stung by glow-in-the-dark wasps? It sounds like the premise for a 1950s horror movie.

Are there any more radioactive wasps’ nests around? That’s another thing they don’t know. Someone will have to look.

Be careful, whoever you are.
