Stop calling it the "murder hornet"

Over the weekend, you may have seen charged headlines about the "murder hornet." In response, I received many panicked messages asking whether the Asian giant hornet is a cause for concern.

Check out my recent Tufts Pollinator Initiative (TPI) blog post to learn about why this hornet could be a problem for managed honey bees, how to identify the hornet, and why NOT to panic here.

Unless otherwise noted, all photographs are my own. Please feel free to use my photographs in presentations and/or for teaching purposes. I do request that you give credit where credit is due. Thank you!
