Speaking of burning a house.....
Dave Schmida has advice for anyone trying to kill hornets high up on their house.
“Don’t spray it with Raid,” he said, at least if you are then going to use fireworks to burn the nest. The two don’t mix well.
Mr. Schmida, 21, was at his family’s home at 3 Mashapaug Road on Monday, visiting from college, and he noticed that hornets had built a large nest under a corner of the roof, three stories up.

A North Shore family found a live frog in their store-bought salad and the local grocery store is owning up to the situation.
The Allen family found the frog in their Simple Truth Organic lettuce Tuesday when they were making dinner after getting groceries from the Pick 'n Save on North Port Washington Road in Glendale.
"I'm across the room and I hear a shriek and a thud," Karlie Allen said.
She went to investigate.
"Holy moly this is this is happening," said Allen.
