The hornet has landed: Scientists combat new honeybee killer in US (knowablemagazine.org)

Soon USA will find the second little problem. This animals not only will decimate bees and other insects, they will also kill people. They can do and they will do. Easily.

My advice, If you spot one around your table or in your roses, as I do on my table and my roses, just say calm and don't mess with it. This is not your common yellow-jacket.

And if you plan to use your lawnmower or shoot your gun in the backyard, watch first around quietly for hidden nests. They hate-hate-hate sources of noise near the primary nests. A mass attack will happen in three seconds. Make sure your old parents get the idea.

Those who introduced it into USA deserve jail time.
