Getting rid of an old tree is expensive.

Now I have a new plan to remove that old rotted out tree for free:

Step 1. Get some murder hornets...

“protect native honeybees,”

Honeybees aren’t any more native than Murder Hornets.

Short for “US - I’m outta here!”

You know those "Help Wanted" signs seen everywhere...

(and to think some people criticized those snazzy MAGA hats on pigeons)

“””” have been searching for nests since the first Asian giant hornets “””””

Dat raciss. They changed the name of the Asian carp that are destroying the Mississippi river to Silver Carp.

Wouldn’t want to offend those lovely Chinese people.

Using dental floss, “entomologists were able to attach radio trackers to three hornets, the second of which led them to the discovery of the nest”

Either those are might small radio tracking devices or mighty large hornets. Or both.

The property owner has given permission for agency staff to eradicate the nest and remove the tree, if necessary.

Nice of him.

It isn't too hard to attach the radio trackers. First you tranquilize the hornets with darts...

Unfortunately, the first 297 entomologists who attempted to do that for us, are no longer among the living.

Considering they've been here since the 17th century, they were granted resident status a couple hundred years ago.............Sheesh!

What's up with you pseudo know it all's anyway?
