A growing problem for livestock farmers
The Asian hornet is on the rise and is increasingly causing problems in the agricultural sector. This invasive wasp species settles in and around livestock farms and can cause serious nuisance. Not only does it pose a danger to humans and animals, but also to safety in and around stables.
As a livestock farmer, you want to tackle pests such as the Asian horned beetle quickly and effectively. But how do you recognise this invader? And what is the most effective way to control it?
How do you recognise a nest of the Asian hornet?
The Asian hornet is similar to the European hornet, but has some distinctive characteristics:
- Dark brown to black head and thorax
- Yellow legs (unlike the European hornet)
- Orange-coloured band on abdomen
The nests are usually found on:
- High places such as treetops or roofs
- Storage areas, sheds or under eaves
- Sometimes in lower places such as bushes or hay stacks


Why the Asian hornet moth is a problem for livestock farms
- Aggressive when disturbed: A nest in or near a barn can be dangerous for both animals and employees.
- Nuisance in stables and storage areas: Hornets often seek sheltered places to build their nests.
- Difficult to control without the right approach: Without an effective pesticide, a nest can expand rapidly.
