To get in touch with us on any bee related matter except for swarms send an email to our secretary, Sally Leslie at: dwbkasecretary@gmail.com
If you think you have a swarm please click here and check the information from the BBKA .
If you have seen an Asian Hornet the most noticeable features are:
- Yellow legs
- Single yellow band near its tail
- Narrow yellow belt at its waist
- Rest of the body is black or dark brown
- It is just over 2.5cms or 1 inch long
The Asian Hornet is a very serious threat so please act now. A queen Asian Hornet can lay a lot of eggs in a day so every day's delay…..
