Exterminators hope to today cut open and remove the monster wasp nest found bordering a Hamurana lifestyle block this week.
Bay Pest Services owner-operator Chris Brunel said the stubborn nest, about 2m wide and 2m tall was the biggest he had seen in his 30-years in the industry.
He said "all hell broke loose" after the team heavily re-dosed the nest with poison on Tuesday, smashed a chamber to expose the larvae and leaving it for a day yesterday to calm down and hopefully kill off all the wasps.
Brunel said his foot was swollen today after an aggravated wasp flew through a gap in his taped-down protective gear, stinging him.
The crew used the day away yesterday to see to a queue of spider and cockroach jobs.
