Large Invasive Hornets
The northern giant hornet (NGH; Vespa mandarinia) was first found in North America in 2019, when individual NGH were seen in the upper northwestern Washington state and across the border in British Columbia, Canada. Individual NGH were seen in 2020 and several nests were destroyed in 2021. No NGH or its nests were found in 2022 or 2023. To date, no NGH have been found outside of this small area of Washington state and British Columbia.
