When James saw Liam crying in the attic, it broke up the monotony of his day. He didn’t realize that as he tried to calm his traumatized son, a long-kept secret was going to be disclosed in their house,
The story began in 2018 when the family’s arborvitae trees were damaged by deer. As they prepared to replace the trees on the east side of the yard, they noticed something odd between them. At first, it was believed to be an electrical box, but it was far more complicated.
In May 2018, when landscapers came to remove the damaged trees, they discovered that the metal box was actually the entrance of a massive hornet’s nest, not just any old fixture. James and Liam were shocked by the nest’s size and its odd sounds, which resembled the engine of a laboring car, and they guessed that something significant was concealed within.
James called a hornet control expert, but after observing the peculiar colony in the attic, the expert rejected him for the job. After contacting many pest treatment businesses, James was advised to wait until winter. Because of the deafening noise and the worsening situation, James decided to take action alone.
