A carpenter bee the size of a large chestnut can hang in the air a foot from someone's face, hold position, drift a few inches sideways, and hold again, as if it is deciding whether to attack.

You hear it before you see anything: a low, steady hum coming from somewhere inside the wall, loudest on a warm afternoon, faint enough that you keep stopping to ask whether you imagined it.

You reach for the handle and notice the movement first: a few wasps drifting in and out of a papery gray comb tucked up in the door frame, or worked into the corner of the eave right above where everyone walks in. Maybe two of them, maybe a dozen, crawling over a nest the size of a golf ball or a fist. It is inches from the door you use fifty times a day, and every trip in and out now feels like a gamble.
