Just great, now we have wasps with superpowers. Bummer.
Could have been worse.
I find all wasp nests to be radioactive, and act accordingly.
“No wasps were found?”
That’s comforting to know. So now we have the possibility of radioactive wasps that will inject their radioactive poison into unsuspecting victims.....
Wasps slurp of tons of water from any source. Making paper and cooling the hive takes about two gallons per day. That means some radioactive water puddles are nearby.
No super powers, but you have a svelte waist.
Now a manager I once had, we believed he’d been bitten by a radioactive dung beetle.
Nuke ‘em till they glow the shootem in the dark!!! Got stung by one hidden on the front side of my shooting bench a couple of weeks ago. Sprayed them three days in a row then had to use a long stick to knock the nest down and stomped on it. I’m only 300 miles from Savannah River...looks like they’re spreading!
“I’m as mad as a hornet...”, Clements said.

One of the creepiest and therefore ‘best’ movies about wasps, would be ‘The Wasp Woman’ from 1959. Directed by Roger Corman.

I saw this while in the hospital recovering from foot surgery.
The Nurse wondered why my blood pressure was so high, even before breakfast. I said. “I don’t really know’, thinking she would take my TV away, if I blurted out the real cause!
Myself....
Those little buggers can work their way into any space.
Bald face hornets pounded Mr right thru my beekeepers suit.
The stings felt like being hit by hot hammers. Nasty things.
Make me a Seargeant in charge of the booze!

Marvel and DC will pay big money for the wasp’s story.
When I worked at a landfill I had radiation treatments for non-hodgkins lymphoma. When I would go out to the scalehouses I would set off the radiation detectors. Sounds more serious than it was, because obviously I was interacting with people, and the doctors wouldn’t have let me contaminate people. Or would they...
