finally some good fucking food...

Anybody know where i can get some murder hornets from? (i jest, ofc)

shitposting aside, how rare is it that invasive species are eradicated before becoming a problem? Can't be that common.

Never. Cause the definition of "Invasive species" includes it being a problem. Otherwise they're called "Introduced species".

Yeah they are probably lying. They can not know with 100% certainty that these giant asian hornets have all been eradicated in the us. They couldn't get rid of something as benign as the spotted lantern fly or the marmorated stink bug but sure lets believe they got rid of a hornet as big as a humming bird that has facial recognition capabilities and can unalive people with a swarm no larger than 50 to 100 of the fuckers
