Final narrative
An employee was on an extension ladder approximately 4 feet off the ground opening a junction box on the exterior of a house to trace the wires for a security camera installation. Upon removal of the cover plate of the junction box, a swarm of wasps started to rapidly fly out of the junction box toward the employee. The employee was startled, lost balance on the ladder, and fell to the ground. The employee sustained a fractured left wrist and a fractured L1 vertebra, requiring hospitalization.
