A radioactive wasp nest was found at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina, a facility where the US once produced nuclear weapons.

    in Washington State we have this problem near Hanford. The radio active particles are in the dirt and the wasps make nests or use the top layers of soil to make their hives and they bring those radioactive particles with them

    we even have radioactive rabbits that cause the same kind of problems.

    would be nice if the feds, who created this problem, would finance an actual clean up but I suspect it will take Mother Nature doing it over the next thousands of years

          It looks like superhero wasp characters are generally female, I assume because most wasps — at least among social wasps, dunno about others — are female.

            Genuinely, I’m pretty sure it’s because wasps have thin waists and big butts, and the horny men who draw comics can’t get their minds out of their pants.
