Experts have warned Asian hornets are nesting in wardrobes - after one was found in an elderly woman's trousers. The OAP got the fright of her life and dialled 999 after spotting the killer bug - a Queen - in her clothes.
Officers and beekeepers in Jersey in the Channel Islands raced to her home to remove the bug - which she had captured in a yoghurt pot. The island is currently the front line of an invading force of the hornets capable of decimating the native bee population in the British Isles.
Volunteers hunting the insects there have recorded more than twice as many as ever this year. The experts thought they had time to regroup ready to go again next year under the expectation they had gone into hibernation for the winter.
