Hornet (Vespa crabro L.)
The Hornet is the UK’s largest wasp.
Hornets often build their nests in a hollow of a deciduous tree.
Hornets are unlikely to attack unless provoked. Despite their size, their sting is no more painful than that of a wasp.
The hornet is orange/brown in colour and its wings are slightly darker than a wasp, but the most significance difference is its size.
In the UK there is only one species of Hornet, however it would appear that it may not be long before Vespa velutina L., a hornet from the Far East arrives in the UK.
This hornet from theFar East arrived inFrance most likely in a consignment of pottery, and French beekeepers have been reporting a loss of up to 60% in honey production.
