These aggressive predators snatch and kill bees mid-air, threatening agriculture and pollination. Teams are racing to locate and destroy massive nests—some housing over 100,000 hornets—using specialized gear and even tree climbers, at a cost of up to $3,000 per nest. With the threat spreading north and public help crucial, experts urge residents to report sightings via Clemson’s online tool to stop this bee-butchering menace before it’s too late.
