What happens if you open a GIANT NEST OF HORNETS?
In the spring of last year, the appearance of the largest species of hornets was recorded in the USA — the Asian giant hornet Vespa mandarinia. This event has become a serious cause for alarm for beekeepers, because hornets are able to destroy a whole hive of bees in a matter of hours, tearing off their heads. For local residents, these creatures are also dangerous, since Vespa mandarinia bites can be fatal to humans — in Japan, for example, up to 50 people per year die from them.
The third nest of giant hornets has already been discovered in the USA: Hornet, Insects, Hymenoptera, Dangerous animals, Wild animals, USA, Washington, Invasive species, The National Geographic,
At the end of October 2020, the Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) reported the destruction of a nest of Asian giant hornets on the territory in Blaine, near the border with Canada. At that time, about 200 queen hornets were counted in the nest, which could establish two hundred new colonies of these insects.
At the end of August, Washington State officials announced that they had destroyed the first nest of the season, which was located there near the town of Blaine. It was found about three kilometers from the nest destroyed last year. Now WSDA employees have found a third nest nearby and are going to subject it to the same fate as the previous two.
The process of insect eradication includes vacuuming hornets from the nest, as well as removing bark and rotten wood at the base of the tree. Part of the tree on which the nest was located was cut out and transported to the territory of Washington State University in Bellingham for further analysis. According to the authorities, in total there were about 1,500 hornets in the nest at various stages of development.
Officials in the US are asking the public to continue to help find this invasive species. The wooded landscape and mild, humid climate of Washington State make it an ideal place for hornets to spread. Perhaps thermal imaging systems will also be used to detect the hornets’ habitat — a lot of buzzing insects significantly increase the temperature inside the nest.
