Eradicating ‘MURDER HORNETS’ in the US 🐝

The US successfully eradicated the invasive Northern Giant Hornet (Murder Hornet), first spotted in 2019 in Washington state.

These hornets posed a serious threat to:

🔹 Bees & Pollinators: Destroyed entire hives in 90 mins, affecting agriculture.
🔹 Humans: Deadly stings caused 42 deaths in China (2013).

How It Was Done:

1️⃣ Tracking: Tagged live hornets with radio transmitters to locate nests.
2️⃣ Nest Destruction: Used foam, vacuuming, and CO₂ to eliminate hornets.
3️⃣ Public Participation: Residents helped with traps and reports.

👉 Success protects pollinators, crops, and ecosystems. Surveillance continues to prevent re-entry.
