our hornets seem pretty docile and I caught and released one from my lounge a few days ago. However, the asian hornet which has invaded France
is more aggressive and can be lethal to our already threatened bee hives.
Worth early reporting if we see any of these invaders, leave their football sized nests to professional pest controllers. Lets hope they don't fancy channel hopping!
