vermin check your barn finds

2 weeks ago i bought a antique radio at a barn sale.
not thinking i put it in a bag and set it in the van behind the drivers seat.it was rather cool that morning and this radio was in a barn undisturbed for a few years.next thing i know i feel a buzz/tickle in my shirt sleeve.
got stung several times before i got stopped on i-70.that radio had a huge wasp nest inside and i had an estimated 300 angry wasps in the van.even with all the doors open most stayed inside.had to call a friend to bring raid to clear them out.she would not come near the van because she is allergic to beesting.after they were all dead i took the nest out and gave it to her to clean and clear spray it to preserve it.she counted over 450 cells in it.filled the entire top of a philco 16b cathedral.
