Buzzing in the ears of Naklua residents turned out not to
be the high-voltage power poles in their neighborhood but, instead, wasps
nested on them.
Provincial Electricity Authority workers were up on poles
July 8 in the Roi Lang neighborhood trying to clear out encampments of paper
wasps. The evictions did not go well, though, leaving many locals ducking
for cover as angry insects took to the air.
Diligent work by PEA workers, however, cleared most of
the hornet nests. Anyone who discovers more can call the power company to
have them cleared.
