Dang! Those things are huge. I found some pics on the interwebs. Hate to drive into a swarm of them on a motorcycle with an open face helmet.

Did a little light reading. No full nests reported found in USA yet, but a few single hornets have been found in Washington State.
They are being found in Vancouver Island BC, Canada.
It looks like they were more likely European Hornets, maybe??? Look similar, but smaller????

That would call for a bit more then just a cabbed tractor,
were in the heck can a person buy a flame thrower with a SSQA mount.
Glad no one got stung by those things.

If you really think they are Giant Asian Hornets, you should report to the authorities, probably the state Department of Agriculture. As stated above, I don't think they have been found in the U.S. except a few in Washington. But if they are there, the authorities will want to find any other nests that may be in the area and destroy them. Those hornets will devour a honey bee colony in a couple of hours and are extremely dangerous. I believe I have read that their sting can cause kidney damage or death for some individuals.

Indeed. I read what they can do to honey bee colonies and people. We don’t want those hornets anywhere in the US.

If I lived closer I'd take you up on that! It's a bit of a ride for me, though! 41 hours if I drove straight through!

You might find shipping cost to justify having it shipped. Or you may find the cross country trip worthy of all the tails to tell and memories. Right now you might find it easier to find a company who is looking for cargo.

I like the Visegrip adjuster on the trencher.
