Yellow-legged Asian Hornet – Is Nest Destruction a Dangerous Delusion? Is Spring Trapping the Lesser of Two Evils?

Andrew is a Cambridgeshire beekeeper who started his research into the Asian Hornet (a.k.a. Yellow-legged Hornet - Vespa velutina) in 2014, travelling around France and researching the impact of the hornet on French beekeeping. The talk: as the hornet continues to make ground on the continent and is threatening to get established in mainland UK, this is an important and timely contribution to a debate that beekeepers are going to have to have before the NBU withdraws from the front-line battle to eradicate the hornet. Beekeepers on the continent are getting drawn into the general fight against the hornet and are being overwhelmed. Andrew examines the pros and cons of the different schemes in operation in France (and Jersey) and he suggests how beekeepers could best use their limited resources to serve their bees.
