New Zealand is fighting to eliminate invasive hornets in Auckland, using public reports and new bait to prevent harm to bees.
New Zealand is actively working to eradicate the invasive Asian yellow-legged hornet in Auckland’s North Shore, having destroyed 43 queen hornets and their nests, largely due to public reports.
With sightings concentrated in Glenfield and Birkdale, authorities are using radio trackers and expanding surveillance, while preparing to deploy a safe, protein-based bait called Vespex in February.
The critical phase through February requires continued public vigilance to locate hidden nests before autumn reproduction.
A $12 million government commitment supports the effort, which aims to prevent the species from establishing and harming bee populations.
