Spotting an Asian hornet nest in your neighborhood can now be easily reported thanks to a new tool implemented by the Municipality. The FixMyStreet Wallonie application is now used to centralize and manage these reports, allowing for quicker and more effective intervention.
The procedure is straightforward: simply take a photo of the nest, locate it precisely within the app, and then send the report. Once the report is received, the municipal team takes over and informs the citizen about the follow-up actions.
It is crucial to emphasize the importance of safety. Authorities stress that one should never approach the nest or attempt to destroy it themselves. It is recommended to keep a safe distance and report the nest's presence securely.
Even during the winter months, vigilance is advised. Depending on weather conditions, some nests may remain active until the end of the year. Therefore, a nest spotted in autumn or winter should always be reported.
