The Asian giant hornet (AGH) or Japanese giant hornet, Vespa mandarinia, recently found in British Columbia, Canada, and in Washington State, poses a significant threat to European honey bee (EHB), Apis mellifera, colonies and is a public health issue. The AGH is the world's largest species of hornet, native to temperate and tropical low mountains and forests of eastern Asia. It appears the hornet is well adapted to conditions in the Pacific Northwest. If this hornet becomes established, it will have a severe and damaging impact on the honey bee population, the beekeeping industry, the environment, public health, and the economy. It is critical that we identify, trap, and attempt to eliminate this new pest before it becomes established and widespread. Here, we will cover how the AGH will impact the honey bee, give the reader a better understanding of the hornet, outline precautions to take, and first aid if attacked by the hornet.

Economic Costs Of The Invasive Asian Hornet On Honey Bees written by Fabrice Requier and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2022 with categories.
Biological invasions have ecological impacts worldwide with potential massive economic costs. Among other ecosystem services, invasive alien species are particularly known to impact pollination. By predating honey bees (Apis mellifera), the invasive Asian hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax) increases the mortality risk of European bee colonies; however, little is known about its economic costs. We developed an analytic process combining large-scale field data, niche modelling techniques and agent-based models to spatially assess the ecological and economic impacts of the Asian hornet on honey bees and beekeeping in France. In particular, we estimated (i) the hornet-related risk of bee colony mortality, (ii) the economic cost of colony loss for beekeepers and (iii) the economic impact of livestock replacement compared to honey revenues at regional and national scales. We estimated an overall density of 1.07 Asian hornet nest/km2 in France, based on the field record of 1260 nests over a searched area of 28,348 km2. However, this predator density was heterogeneously spread out across the country as well as the distribution of managed honey bee colonies. Overall, this hornet-related risk of bee colony mortality could reach up to 29.2% of the beekeepers' livestock at national scale each year in high predation scenario. This national cost could reach as much as € 30.8 million per year due to colony loss, which represents for beekeepers an economic impact of livestock replacement of 26.6% of honey revenues. Our results suggest non-negligible ecological and economic impacts of the invasive Asian hornet on honey bees and beekeeping activities. Moreover, this study meets the urgent need for more numerous and accurate economic estimations, necessary to calculate the impact of biological invasions on biodiversity and human goods, with a view to enhance policies of biodiversity conservation.

The Asian giant hornet (AGH) (Vespa mandarinia) is native to East Asia. They were discovered in 2019 in Whatcom County, which is located in the northwestern region of Washington State. AGH colonies become sizable beginning in late summer or early fall and need large amounts of protein to feed their young during this time. Because honey bees are a source of essential fats and protein, AGH may target their beehives and colonies. While honey bees in the AGH's native range have evolved defenses against the AGH, European honey bees, the variety kept in the United States, have not. If AGH becomes established in the United States, they could pose a threat to US honey bee colonies. This publication covers signs indicative of predation by AGH on honey bee colonies and information for beekeepers in Washington State.
