https://mashable.com/article/murder-hornets/10 rather interesting facts about those hornets. Part of fact #10:
10. They're not invincible
Don't worry, it's possible to get rid of murder hornets. There are numerous methods of getting rid of Asian giant hornets through the use of poison, controlled fires, baited traps, and screens. Not only can humans do a lot to get rid of these pests, sometimes honeybees can outnumber these giant killers. A bunch of honeybees will completely cover the murder hornets and kill them by increasing the heat within the tangle of bodies and exerting carbon dioxide.

I feel stupid saying "killer bees", even though that term's been around forever. I refuse to say "murder hornets". That said, I will not go to any state where this sumbitch has been spotted, and I will move if it gets to my locality.
