I would just be curious, I would deal with the situation myself as I don't think you could depend of the Dept of Ag. when driving home in four lanes of traffic I was thinking how many of these people would be aware of the environment or what is going on around them, I suspect very few, then i doubt if they would be interested in an Asian Hornet unless it was reported on radio "Killer Hornets invade Ireland" then it would be a one hour wonder. I mentioned it at work today as these people work outdoors no one expressed any interest, when I showed the pic i had one said sure there is hundreds of them around, There is not as I would know but that is where it is at. I put a poster up the Apiary asking if members of the public notice something unusual to let me know it will be an interesting social experiment to see the reaction. IF and only IF one was spotted it would be better to organise local beekeepers to search for the source than some desk environmentalist.
