Bell Hornet


This is a European Hornet. In our house. It landed on the window and crawled onto the screen so my Hooman shut the window and trapped it. It's HUGE. It's actually called a European Hornet. They are 1-2 inches big, this one is about 1.5 inches. My Hooman left the back door open for me so I could work on my tan on the deck and it flew in. My Hooman told me that hornets are bad news because they can sting you repeatedly. I didn't believe her. But she was right, they don't have barbed stingers so they can get you over and over. Note to self........don't try to eat a Bell Hornet.
