Starting in September, Asian hornet queens leave their nests to reproduce and establish new colonies. In August, the Xunta awarded seven of eight contracts dividing Galicia by province halves to reinforce the public agricultural service company Seaga's teams for removing and neutralizing nests of this invasive species during peak activity periods. This week, the last contract for southern Pontevedra was awarded, with a budget of €490,631.89 to enable nearly 5,000 interventions by year-end.
