Hard-working wasps in Hastings took the phrase “make hay while the sun shines” to the next level, creating a huge nest inside piles of hay in a horse barn in Longlands.
Kieran Chisnall, of Hawke’s Bay Wasp Control, was called out on Wednesday to take care of the larger-than-average German wasp nest.
Despite its size, it was just a job like any other for Chisnall and exterminating the wasps didn’t give him any particular trouble.
He said the nest was slightly larger than a basketball.
