Our next meeting!
Our next meeting will be held on zoom on Monday 9th September @ 7.30pm
We are delighted to be joined by Mr. Ramon Reinders from the Netherlands.
Ramon will be telling about their response to the Asian Hornet threat and practical measure that have been undertaken (e.g. app developed, spring trapping, tracking, removing of nests etc.). This talk should be of particular interest given the rise in cases in England and the very real risk posed not only here in Northern Ireland, but the entire island of Ireland.
There will also be a panel discussion on winter preparations and Q&A.
