A small nest of hornets in an outbuilding in Monmouthshire has been destroyed but Defra have not confirmed that it was an Asian Hornet nest.

Beekeepers in the area are keeping an eye out for Asian Hornets. 

This is the picture of the nest and hornet emerging before it was destroyed. 

All beekeepers are asked to be vigilant for hornets and keep looking for nests in sheds and trees on their walks outside.
