Question 13228 — animals

Summary

Mr. Robin Reda draws the attention of the Minister of State, Minister for Ecological and Inclusive Transition, to the implementation of a national plan to eradicate the Asian hornet. Since its first appearance on the territory in 2004, the Asian hornet has continued to proliferate until it now occupies the entire territory and seriously threatens the hives that it attacks and decimates, already damaged by various factors. But the hornet Asian hornet is also dangerous for humans, whom it does not hesitate to attack, as was the case this summer in the English Channel where a man died following an Asian hornet sting. The Asian hornet is classified as a second category health hazard. This implies that the cost of destroying a nest, which can range from 100 to 1,000 euros, is the responsibility of individuals. Certain departments such as Manche or Alpes-Maritimes have organized themselves and implemented local plans to reduce the invasion of this harmful species. Also, he would like to know what the Government's national strategy is to effectively combat the proliferation of Asian hornets.
