2020's newest gift to us... (Murder Hornets) (1 Viewer)


But researchers are describing an interesting defense being employed against the menacing hornet: the Japanese honeybee. Bees in Japan have been known to form a ball around the invader and vibrate to produce heat, which can essentially cook a hornet to death. The report said bees can survive in extreme temperatures and can kill a hornet in an hour.

Awesome, but unfortunately American honeybees originally came from Europe and have not developed this strategy. Invasive species
like the murder hornet often thrive because they have no natural predator. The answer might be to start importing Japanese honeybees
and turn them loose.
