Eradication Murder Hornet Nest, Asian Giant Hornet Nest Removal, Wasp Nest Removal, Vespa Mandarina

Everyone's favorite Hornet, this time I found a video that I can't translate, but at the 3 minute mark, this mad lad is going to use a pickaxe and dig their nest out.

Here are 7 Haikus I wrote about the hornets.

Yellow and black, fierce
Hornet of Japan, beware
Sting of death is near

In cherry blossoms
Japanese hornet, a menace
Nature's balance, upset

Fear in the village
Japanese hornet's venomous sting
Death looms in the air

Summer's hot sun beats
Japanese hornet, hunting prey
Nature's cycle, harsh

In the garden bloom
Japanese hornet, a predator
Beauty and danger mix

Swift, silent hunter
Japanese hornet, a terror
Nature's deadly force

In the peaceful woods
Japanese hornet, a silent threat
Nature's balance, off

When I was a kid we used to mess with wasps all the time.

We'd catch them in big leaves and pull their wings off and make them fight bumble bees or large beetles.

There was a huge paper wasp nest in an apple orchard on our way to school. So of course we threw apples at it.

Good times.

Let's say there is a bee farm where the number of bees (b) is constantly decreasing at a rate of x Japanese hornets per day. The bee farm wants to keep the number of bees above a certain threshold (t) in order to maintain production.

If we know that the bee farm starts with an initial number of bees (b0) and the number of hornets (h) attacking the farm is increasing at a rate of y hornets per day, we can write the following equation to model the bee population over time (t):

b(t) = b0 - xt + (y * t)

If we also know that the bee farm is able to remove z hornets per day through extermination efforts, we can add that to the equation:

b(t) = b0 - xt + (y * t) - (z * t)

Now, let's say the bee farm wants to ensure that the number of bees never drops below 1000. We can set the threshold (t) to 1000 and set the equation equal to it:

b(t) = b0 - xt + (y * t) - (z * t) = 1000

My granny had beehives, I remember smackin' them w sticks, and eruption to say the least of bees, don't recall getting stung to death tho.


an ode to the paper wasp:

Oh paper wasp, so graceful and sleek,
Your slender body, a work of art,
With stripes of yellow and black, unique,
You fly with purpose, not just a part.

Your nest, a marvel of engineering,
Built with care and precision,
A home for your young, a safe haven,
With walls of paper, a fusion.

You are a creature of the wild,
A hunter, a provider,
With your venomous sting, you are feared,
But also a pollinator.

You are a symbol of the seasons,
A reminder of the cycle,
Of life and death, of growth and decay,
A reminder that all is ephemeral.

Oh paper wasp, you are a wonder,
A piece of nature's grand design,
A reminder of our place in the world,
And the beauty that surrounds us, in every line.

So here's to you, paper wasp,
A creature small but mighty,
A symbol of the natural world,
A creature that is truly lovely.

Just a few observations.
So ET's have co-opted Murder Wasps into building flying saucers underground for them?
Probe sized alien saucers?

Dude needed to bring more than one bottle.

That Wasp had a CAPE!!!
A. CAPE!!!

Thank you for breaking the internet for me. Wasp's wear capes. 10-9-8-7-6....before someone on Etsy is making tiny wasp clothes.

our queen's in danger
they destroy our buried home
fly my sisters, sting
