    ..What's with all this crap coming from Asia, first covid19, now monster 2'' long hornets arriving in our country killing off our already threatened Honey Bee population.

    A smoothbore .22 should be enough gun.

    The European wasp has been here for several years. The look like an extra large yellow jacket. I’ve had problems with them @ my workplace. I don’t think they sting but they are a nuisance at the school where I work.

    Had a nest of those things in my back yard. And they would buzz around the outdoor light at night!

    I think the new guy on the block might be different than the European wasp. Supposedly the big ones are new to the US.

    The "mild mannered" Euro wasp on the left. The John Wick of hornets on the Right.

    Me thinks they escaped from the ''Wet Markets'' of china.

    Not too concerned about the new "murder hornet" but if this one shows up I don't think even 3 drm. 7-/2's will help.

    Probably some kind of genetic experiment in Wuhan China that went horribly wrong.
