Wasp Ground Nest Between Bldg. 2900 & Bldg. 3000

Dear Campus Community,

A wasp ground nest has been found on the main campus walkway between Building 2900 and Building 3000. The nest is in the ground under the railing on the east side of the path by the 3000 building. Signage has been placed around the area warning of the presence of the nest. Our external contractor, Western Exterminators, is scheduled to neutralize the nest tomorrow, Thursday, October 10th. Use of alternate routes is advised in the interim as there have been multiple reports of being stung while walking through the area. While the neutralization of nests is not our preferred option at any time, these nests pose a hazard to the safety of members of our community.

Student inquiries can be directed to safetyandsecurity@shoreline.edu

Respectfully,

Your Department of Safety & Security
