Another Asian giant hornet has been found in Whatcom County. Officials with the Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) are continuing to work to track the hornets back to their hives in an effort to eradicate them.
The Asian giant hornet worker was found dead in a trap set by a local beekeeper in cooperation with the WSDA in the Birch Bay area, near Blaine, Wash., on Aug. 19, according to a WSDA statement.
It was discovered in the same area as an unmated queen Asian giant hornet trapped in July. The invasive species so far has only been found in Whatcom County.
