The Asian hornet is a hornet from Southeast Asia that has spread to many other countries, including most of Europe, where it is an invasive species. It is a concern because it hunts honeybees and its stings can be serious for people.1

Domov

Hornets build paper nests, which can hold several thousand individuals. Nests start in a low shrub and are often moved high into a tree after some months. Hornets hunt over beehives and apiaries, where people keeping bees can meet them, and people may be attacked when they disturb a nest.1

Kaj je?

It hunts a wide range of insects, including flies, dragonflies and grasshopper-type insects (Orthoptera), usually by chasing them in flight. Where it finds honeybee colonies, it tends to specialise in catching honeybees.1

Kako jo prepoznaš

Queens are about 3 cm long, males about 2.4 cm and workers about 2 cm, so it is significantly smaller than the European hornet.1
Its legs (tarsi) are yellow, which gives it the name yellow-legged hornet.1
The thorax is velvety brown or black, with a brown abdomen.1
Each abdominal segment has a narrow yellow border at the back, except the fourth segment, which is orange.1
The head is black and the face is yellow.1

Pogosto zamenjujejo z: It looks like the European hornet (V. crabro), which is much larger. Its nest exit is usually on the side rather than at the bottom.1

Piki

Strup pride ven skozi želo.

Kaj naredi njen strup, ko ugrizne ali piči?

Multiple stings have caused anaphylactic shock, a severe allergic reaction, in people who were hospitalised in France.1

Kako nevarna je za ljudi?

Nevarnost za ljudi: BolečeLahko zelo boli, a skoraj nikoli ni resno.

Although the species is not aggressive, people have been attacked after disturbing nests. A man in Galicia, Spain, was killed in 2017 after being stung over 20 times while pruning an apple tree. Several people have died in south west France, including in 2019 and 2020. Because of its larger size, its stings are more serious than those of western honeybees.1

Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?

When it feels its nest is threatened, it charges in a group.1

Če piči

Čebelje želo postrgaj ven in mesto ohladi.
Če ima poškodovanec težave z dihanjem, otekel obraz ali grlo ali se mu vrti, kot da bo omedlel, gre za nujno stanje zaradi alergije: pokliči številko za klic v sili in uporabi njegov adrenalinski avtoinjektor, če ga ima.

Vedno najprej pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911). To so splošna navodila za prvo pomoč, ne zdravniški nasvet. Osnove prve pomoči

Ostani varen

Nikoli se ne dotikaj divje živali, je ne lovi in je ne draži, tudi če je majhna in tudi če je videti, kot da spi ali je mrtva.
Pusti ji prostor. Če jo srečaš, ostani miren, počasi stopi nazaj in jo pusti, da gre svojo pot.
Če te piči: ostani miren, ne premikaj se, pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911) ali hitro pojdi v bolnišnico. Zapomni si, kako je izgledala, fotografija pomaga.

Ne preži nate. Strup uporablja, da ulovi hrano ali se zaščiti, in se veliko raje skrije. Več o varnosti

Dejstva

In its native range, its main prey is the eastern honeybee, which defends the hive by balling hornets and raising the temperature inside the ball to a level that kills the hornet.1

A hornet hunting honeybees holds a territory of about 0.5 m² above a beehive and catches bees as they return to the hive.1

It is believed to have reached France in boxes of pottery from China in 2004.1

A colony often starts a nest in a low shrub, then abandons it after some months and builds a new one high in a tree, possibly to avoid parasites.1

Young queens leave the colony in late autumn and hibernate over winter.1

Razbijalec mitov

Mit: Asian hornets are aggressive and will attack anyone who comes near.

Resnica: The species is not aggressive, but it will charge in a group when it feels its nest is threatened.1
