Wasp Nest Creates Dangerous Situation

Residents of a home in Bellevue were alarmed earlier this week when their carbon monoxide detectors started going off.  Because it is odor-less and color-less, carbon monoxide can be very dangerous.  It can kill.  Firefighters responded to the call and did find elevated levels of the gas.  A search of the home found wasps had built a nest in a water heater exhaust pipe.  The nest blocked the pipe, causing the backup of the gas.  No injuries were reported and the family’s name hasn’t been released.
