This is what it looks like when a childhood spent watching action-sci-fi flicks finally pays off in the real world!  ;D  "I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit."  The only way to be sure, indeed!

Don't they realize this is 2020? Those things are supposed to spread panic, havoc and destruction.

Just wait 'til they find out what we did to this nest.  The rest of 'em are gonna be pissed.   :hide:

Those suits they were wearing are quite serious.

I keep bees. These hornets have been on beekeepers' radars for years and years. I was surprised when they were reported in the US. The press has totally twisted the story on them....murder hornets (snicker).  Yes they are bad news and they are death to beehives, but, the last I heard, there are still a few people left alive in their homeland, Japan. Their big impact is economic and yes, they will kill some people.

Damn! One nest and 200 Queens? Imagine the level of, 'Girl-Drama' going on there.   :wow:   I hear in Japan they're not called Murder Hornets. There they're known as, 'Ninja Gnats'. Cause you never see 'em coming. Until it's too late.  :hide:

The worst thing is the 200 Queens share only one bathroom, which has only one small mirror.
