The 4-foot-high, 3-foot-wide nest formed on the abandoned property of a neighbor who died three years ago. Recently, the nest has become a nuisance for neighbors, Local 6 News reported. "It's been really bad," neighbor Mike Roden said. "You come out here in the early morning and you find out they are swarming everywhere." Roden and other neighbors reportedly asked city, county and state agencies for help to remove the nest earlier this year but did not get a reply. "It looks like a big blob," neighbor Cindy Rice said.

After Local 6 News inquired about the nest, the Lake County Sheriff's office called wildlife specialist Jack Allen to remove it. Allen said that the nest was the largest exposed nest he had ever seen. "A nest that size, if somebody got too close to it they could have easily been stung to death," Wildlife specialist Jack Allen said. The Lake County Sheriff's Department paid $500 to remove the nest late Sunday. Watch Local 6 News for the latest on this story.
