Murder hornets. Murder. Hornets. The Asian giant hornet has quite the moniker, given for its sting and appetite for the offspring of honey bees, and the threat it poses to honey bee populations. News recently emerged that these hornets were in North America. But eight months ago, after hearing about sightings, B.C. beekeepers John and Moufida Holubeshen first tracked, got stung, and then went home, got suited up with better defence and brought reinforcements to terminate and extract a nest of over 100 Asian giant hornets and 600 larvae. This is not the script outline for a B-movie. This happened and the Star's Alex McKeen sat down with John and Moufida, who told their story of a showdown at Robins Park...at the end of Honey Drive (really, that's the road where they found the nest).
