NEW YORK — For the first time since 2019, the northern giant hornet hasn't been found in Washington State.
The Washington State Department of Agriculture's Pest Program announced on Wednesday that it hasn't trapped or confirmed any sightings of the hornets this year.
It's not known how the killer hornets, native to Asian countries including China and Japan, arrived in the Pacific Northwest -- but a plausible theory is that they came in via international cargo. WSDA etymologists discovered and destroyed the first northern giant hornet nest in the U.S. in 2020 in Blaine, Washington, located north of Seattle, near the Canadian border, collecting over 500 hornets.
