They could smell the venom through the suits that two or three of them were spraying. Think the crew were in and out in less then 20 mins.
i think i saw the same documentary. the giant hornets spit if i am not mistaken and they aim for the eyes, so the guys in the suit got a face mask full of bug goo.
