Recent (August 2023) BBKA Guidance on Managing Asian Hornets

In the light of recent rapid increases in Asian Hornet sightings in the UK, the BBKA has ramped up the activities in this area and most recently arranged 2 very good talks given by Andrew Durham from Cambridgeshire Beekeepers’ Assocation. These are now on YouTube and the links are below :-
