Special notification!
Yellow-Legged Hornet was found in High Point recently, specifically in the Oak Hollow area by a beekeeper.
Here’s some NCDA&CS literature on the YLH. https://www.ncagr.gov/YLH
Here’s a link to the NCDA&CS Reporting Form. It does require that a photo be uploaded because the European Hornet is often mistaken for the YLH and the Asian Giant Hornet (AKA The Murder Hornet). Anytime someone suspects they’ve found YLH they can report it through this form: https://survey123.arcgis.com/share/580253bb545f4024907319bf34b39e95
