I was contacted recently by someone who was visiting Slebech Park, they believe they saw an Asian Hornet. Please remember to be vigilant, if you see what could be an Asian Hornet, try and photograph it, follow it if you can in case it has a nest and if you manage to catch one in your hornet trap retain it . If you use the ‘what3words‘ app, this can help pinpoint exactly where your sighting was. Please report any sightings to us and/or the Regional/Seasonal Bee Inspectors.
