In recent years, the United States has faced an alarming and deadly threat in the form of the giant killer wasp, aptly nicknamed the “deadly hornet”.

This invasive and highly destructive insect, considered the largest and most dangerous of its kind in the world, first appeared in the country in 2019 and has continued to spread fear and chaos. Size: They can grow up to 2 inches (5 cm) in length, making them one of the largest hornet species in the world.

The last sighting of the menacing creature was in Washington state in 2021. The discovery sent shockwaves through the region, as this “killer hornet” exhibited aggressive behaviour, attacking everything in its path.

The world’s most dangerous insect is often considered to be the mosquito. While they may seem small and harmless, mosquitoes are responsible for transmitting a variety of deadly diseases, including malaria, dengue fever, Zika virus, and West Nile virus.
