Wasps build their homes out of the chewed-up vegetable fiber. You'd think there's only so much
fiber they can chew and stitch together with their tiny mouthparts. Absolutely wrong. Wasps
work together in packs and a colony of wasps can grow to be as big as a Volkswagen Beetle and
can have more 15,000 wasps. These nests are called super nests and it usually takes more than a
month for the wasps to build them. let’s look at a list of 10 biggest wasp nests in the world, ever
discovered.
Number 10) Giant Louisiana nest
This Horrifyingly Huge Wasp Nest Will Haunt Your Nightmares. This video uploaded by a
brave exterminator in Louisiana shows wasp-cities can grow to humongous, absolutely sickening
proportions. And they really hate it when you mess with their home. Professional beekeeper and
bug exterminator Jude Verret has been a licensed exterminator for 12 years, so that's not the first
time he's dealt with a huge wasp nest. He's seen ones almost as large before, but "that one was
really huge." The nest was found in the corner of a shed in the small city of Patterson, Louisiana.
In the video taken with a GoPro camera, Verret shows the extent of the nest. layers upon layers
upon layers of papery mass, engulfing storage boxes and garden tools within the shed. The
insects sound like a relentless hail of pebbles as they repeatedly hit the GoPro. Despite the
attacks, Verret bravely sprays and dismantles the nest for a harrowing 45 minutes. More power
to people like Verret because we cannot go near a single wasp, let alone a whole army.
According to Verret, the species he was dealing with were the southern yellowjacket wasps, a
common half-inch bug found in the southern US states.
Number 9.) Britain's pub wasp nest
Pest controller Sean Whelan was called in to deal with the 6ft by 5ft nest which housed a total of
about half a million wasps. This wasp nest was discovered in the attic of a Southampton pub.
after exterminating the insects, Whelan said the nest had to remain where it was because it was
too big to remove from the attic. It was given the title of “Britain's biggest pub, and surprisingly,
no other nest has broken the record. Maybe they should check the empty buildings in London.
Number 8.) Canary islands, 22 feet nest
A home in the Spanish town of San Sebastián de La Gomera in the Canary Islands had locals
buzzing. The abandoned home had thousands of wasps swarming out from it and when police
investigated, they were surprised or stung, to find the biggest wasp nest they had ever seen. The
nest was in the hallway and officers said it measured 21 feet, 9 inches long. That is more than 7
meters. If that isn’t scary enough for you, the local bee experts police called in estimated that
there were millions, yes, millions, of wasps living there. You might be wondering where they
came from because millions of wasps don’t just appear out of thin air. After closely examining
the nest, they discovered that the wasps were not of a type they are familiar with seeing in San
Sebastian de La Gomera. The local wasps would not have been about to build a nest this big.
They determined that these wasps were an invasive species that migrated from Africa, just 100
kilometers away.
Number 7.) the unwanted bed nest
We all get scared and annoyed when a wasp enters your room from the window and just
wouldn’t leave. But imagine the state of this homeowner who found out a 3 feet wide nest in
their home BED. Yes, you heard that right. A pest controller said he took on "the biggest job of
his career" when he was called to deal with a nest of more than 5,000 wasps. He said it would
have been "extremely dangerous" if the homeowner had tried to remove it herself. Like removing
a wasp nest is everyone’s dream. The wasps had chewed through the pillows and the mattress of
the bed in order to make their nest larger. The pest controller assumed that it would have taken
the wasps around 3 months to build that nest. What would you do if you found a 3 feet wide
wasp nest on your bed after returning from a vacation in Africa? Surely you wouldn’t be
surprised, right?
Number 6.) super nests of Alabama
Super nests of wasps are one of the many problems with the state of Alabama. In 2006, a colony
of 15,000 yellow jackets, almost the size of a Volkswagen Beetle, was one of 90 perennial nests
located in Alabama that year. The problem was taken care of but the wasps returned to the home
state in 2019. When James Barron went into his smokehouse in southern Alabama to grab an ax,
he was alarmed to see a giant wasp nest about seven feet wide extending along the wall. Charles
