More wasps than normal around Lake Tahoe

Lake Tahoe visitors may notice wasps hovering around and experts say they're seeing more this year, than usual.

"It seems like it's the worst year that they've had up here in quite a few," says Doug Howard, Operations Manager for Tahoe Recreation, "It's been pretty much all over the basin, you know. I have six campgrounds that I run around here and everybody is having the same problem with the bees."

"There have been some reports of some people that have gotten stung up to 50 times and ended up in the hospital," says Howard, "but those are the very rare cases."

"They're chasing everybody, they're chasing all the kids," says Michael Walls, who was at the Nevada Beach campsite celebrating Labor Day with his church group.
