    After weeks of searching, crews from Washington State's Agriculture Department destroyed the first nest of so-called murder hornets found in the U.S. The large invasive hornets can leave painful stings, but pose a bigger threat to honeybees than humans.http://apne.ws/pBh3PcZ

        Now they'll be taken to a lab where they will create nuclear hornets.

        The threat to honey bees is its threat to humans.

        Stop calling them murder hornets for clicks. They are Asian Giant Hornets, and they pose no threat to humans.

        In a roundabout way, they do. Honeybees (and those who enjoy the fruits of their labors) have enough to worry about. Pardon me for not worrying about their fate.....
