A Murder Hornet Nest Destroyed Had Nearly 200 Queens In It

This article was posted november 11th

When scientists found the first nest in B.C they discovered about 500 specimens living in it 200 of them being queens

The queens can all go and start their own nests. so that means if they didn’t find that and destroy that there could have been 200 more nests with hundreds of Murder Hornets in them

“we got there just in the nick of time” said Sven-Erick Spichiger an entomologist leading the fight to kill these hornets

Scientist think other nests already exist and say its impossible to know if any of the queens escaped that nest and made more.

Whats your thoughts on the murder hornets? did you even know they existed?
