Ist es normal, dass ein Schwarm Hornissen über uns fliegt?

Meine Eltern erzählten mir, dass bei ihnen vor ein paar Tagen ein gigantischer Schwarm an Hornissen nur knapp 10-15m über den Garten in Richtung Nordosten geflogen ist mit schätzungsweise 500.000 Exemplaren.

Ist sowas normal, dass es solche riesen Schwärme an Hornissen gibt?

Bees… and yes, that’s normal.

It is the beginning of a new state. It’s dangerous, but it’s not. A beekeeper can collect the swarm and offer him a new home and sell the honey as a rent.

With globalization, diseases were introduced…as for example the varoamilbe, one can fight them with formic acid…but this is also for the bees, like chemotherapy…

And you knew that the sweet elephant of Hummel, who looks so cute, is much more poisonous than any bee or wasp…and they could stand very well when you look over them and feel threatened…what hardly happens.

On the other hand, where hornets are just as peaceful as bumblebees or bees, their poison is much more harmless than that of bumblebees…

Puppies are unpredictable and also enemies, like ants, of bees…but all are important, because it always needs balance…and therefore we should not interfere.

Oh, yes… honey… it is the excretion of aphids, which also collect the bees from the ants. You say the honeydew

But actually, it’s just the excretion of aphids, for whose cultivation ants care…which of course also take care of them by this manna…

Leaf lice are their cow’s hearts, which provide them with important elements…

This has happened to me recently! I was very frightened, the whole air was black because it was so many and the sums were heard meter-wide. Was something special, I was actually a little concerned: but they did nothing to me and flew their way.

Hello,

I’d rather tap bees like sand bees. It may seem like 500,000 animals.

Example:

They are also and they become a great mourning… but are totally peaceful. It looks just threatening… but it’s not.

Sand bees are solitary bees, do not form a people and do not shy

Thank you very much. I know they’re solitary. I didn’t know that they didn’t shoot together. Your comment is important. Best regards, DaLi

Yeah, that’s normal. I’d rather worry if they were flying among you.

Hornets don’t blow up.

Honey bees now form swarms and fly out to form a new people.
Here about 5,000 honey bees have disappeared within a few minutes into a hornet box.

500,000 bees are likely to be exaggerated, because the people have divided (less than half flies out. Then a beekeeper would have to afford a people with over a million copies.

That’s where your parents were. A hornet folk usually counts 400-700 animals.

If your parents can’t even distinguish hornets from bees, I wouldn’t trust them when estimating the swarm size. Bee heat is usually not stronger than about 15,000 animals.

Not like bees. However, the sexual animals are swarming, but not a whole people.

Could it have been sand bees?
I had hundreds of nests behind the house. Last year it was hell on the balcony.
This year, everyone’s gone.

If I imagine all of them flying away collectively…

Sand bees don’t form peoples and I know.

Hi.

what your parents saw was a bee colony in the move.
