No doubt, many of you have by now heard about the Asian Giant Hornet (Vespa mandarinia) that was first spotted in Washington State last December, having migrating there from Western Canada. Under the heading of, “if it bleeds, it leads,” the news media has begun hyping it calling it the killer or murder hornet. OK, we agree it’s certainly something about which to be concerned and unless a way to stop it is found, it will eventually get to NETSEO. It will not, however, be here next month and perhaps not for several years, unless it finds a way to hitch-hike its way here.
