The municipality of Kluisbergen reminds residents that the period for controlling the Asian hornet is ending. Until October 15th, nests can still be reported for free removal.

As the leaves fall from the trees, many Asian hornet nests become clearly visible. Residents who spot a nest can still request a free eradication until October 15th. This can be done via the website www.vespawatch.be or by sending an email to milieu@kluisbergen.be.
Promptly reporting observed nests is crucial to limit the further spread of this invasive species. By working together, the Asian hornet can be kept under control.
