Dang!! Another Asian Invasion - ‘Murder hornets’ in My Area

[cc]

Asian invader is death on wings for bees in Canada, U.S. is known widely as  'Murder hornets'



They can totally destroy a bee hive in hours ... biting off the heads and carrying off the thoraxes back to their nest



We already have a mysterious  bee shortage the past few years (vital for pollination)



The Asian giant hornet typically lives in countries like Japan and China, but several specimens were found in in our area - Blaine in Upper Washington and now SW BC including White Rock and Surrey.



Worse, they are also highly poisonous. Over 50 died from them in Japan last year. The stinger is very long and very strong



It's a AA battery-sized (2 inch long) juggernaut on wings, with a massive, toxic stinger, an armored body and a penchant for biting the heads off bees .. The very long and strong stinger is able to penetrate beekeeper garments easily



Wildlife officials are now investigating fresh reports of the insects on both sides of the border, as the giant hornet queens come out of hibernation to venture out for food.



No way to know how far they will spread .. nor how rapidly

There's already a shortage of honey bees.

There's a nutrition shortage for bees along with the use of pesticides and also foreign infections.

Although, the honey bee isn't on the endangered list, many are still under the impression that they soon will go extinct. Since this species is known for its role in agriculture, the blame is often placed on the ag industry for Colony Collapse Disorder, specifically related pesticide use. This blame is misguided, however, according to many reports.



An extensive analysis done by The Washington Post and published in 2017 show bee numbers sitting at close to historical highs. The research showed that since 2006, when CCD was identified, the number of honeybee colonies has risen, from 2.4 million that year to 2.7 million in 2014.

I can be pissed off at the Chinese government without being pissed off at all Chinese.



There's a difference.

There are five ethnic Han Chinese posters here, three women and two men. To my knowledge, cc has never had a problem with any of them. Well, with the exception of one, and that has been a recent development.
