A Hitchcock would be proud, giant yellow jacket nests
"To the bafflement of insect experts, gigantic yellow jacket nests have started turning up in old barns, unoccupied houses, cars and underground cavities across the southern two-thirds of Alabama."

Man, that level of work made me tired just looking at it. Liquid nitrogen should do the trick without toxic effect. Or wait until winter when the temps are below 40F.

Looks like a fun place to pitch an M-80.
I'm glad it said "southern 2/3rd of Alabama"...

Dude, that is a 55 Chevy 2 door sedan, probably could sell it (without the nest) for $10k easy if it is restorable. I would get in there with a couple hundred wasp bombs and kill all those bastards to save the car.
That makes baby Jesus cry a little bit...
