Dec 18, 2024, 10:27 PM
The Northern giant hornet, commonly known as the 'murder hornet,' has been eradicated from the United States, five years after its initial detection in Washington state in 2019, according to federal and state officials. The invasive species posed a significant threat to native pollinators like honey bees. The eradication was announced after no detections of the hornet had been reported in Washington since 2021, marking a major success in the battle against this invasive species.
