Beekeepers Issue Asian Hornet Alert
British beekeepers have called for a national awareness campaign to address the threat of invasive Asian hornets, which are damaging native pollinators and creating "pollinator deserts" that threaten food security. The species, native to southeast Asia, has been spreading in Europe since 2004 and is responsible for preying on honeybees, impacting biodiversity and agriculture. Authorities rely on public reports and nest destruction efforts to control the invasion, but experts emphasize the need for sustained government action and broader awareness to prevent further establishment of the species.
