Scientists remove 98 'murder hornets' in Washington state

The other 85 Asian giant hornets were vacuumed into a special container when the first nest discovered on U.S. soil was eradicated on Saturday, the agency said.

When the hornets stopped coming out of the nest, the team pumped carbon dioxide into the tree to kill or anesthetize any remaining hornets. They then sealed the tree with spray foam, wrapped it again with cellophane, and finally placed traps nearby to catch any potential survivors or hornets who may have been away during the operation and returned to the tree. The work was completed by 9 a.m.

Asian giant hornets, an invasive pest not native to the U.S., are the world’s largest hornet and a predator of honey bees and other insects. A small group of Asian giant hornets can kill an entire honey bee hive in a matter of hours.

Beating the invasive species over the head with a 2x4 ... call that Seal Team Sticks

Thank You so much these Hornets R Bat Shit Crazy !!

thanks for this news

'Animals'? These are insects.

ماعرفوا مصدرها منين قادمة هاي الحشرات ؟

Какой дурдом. А что не могли попросить новичок у России или по крайней мере пестициды

Unfortunately where there's one there's others

These bastards are like cockroaches, where there’s ONE—there’s always MORE D:

'Removed' yeah right. More like, 'take to a lab and cross breed to create an even deadlier demon'.

What are they going to do with the live hornets?

This team could also be deployed to search for violent Trump* cells.

Looks like there was a scientist for every hornet! MurderHornet

Maybe they could visit the White House next. I heard there are lots of murder hornets in there, including a great big fat orange one.

I swear I saw those guys in the picture in Monsters Inc.

Why didn’t Trump just send in Dr. Atlas?

If you think that will prevent an invasion, let tell you a story about China and a virus that began there.

98 sounds like a very small number considering nests have 1000's in them.

Why did they send the dudes from Death Stranding?
