Asian hornets are invading the country and there is nothing we can do about it.
The hornets are expected to cost the UK millions of pounds to get rid of, as well as have a devastating impact on the already dwindling bee population.
On top of this, a single sting can kill you.
The Daily Star reports that Asian hornets are similar to European ones, but they are not native to the UK.
They are large insects, originally from Southeast Asia, that prey on small creatures - especially bees.
Just one sting is enough to kill someone allergic to their venom.
The yellow legged wasps were accidentally introduced to France from China in 2004 and they have been spreading rapidly throughout Europe ever since.
Experts estimate the Asian hornet colonised most of France at a rate of 60 to 80 kilometres per year.
And the species has swiftly been invading other countries including Spain in 2010, Portugal and Belgium in 2011, Italy in 2012 and Germany in 2014.
The invasive hornets made it to the UK in 2016.
French scientists evaluated the estimated cost of the invasion to Europe.
They analysed the negative impact on ecosystems and the global decline in pollination and honey production.
Attempts to control the invasion concentrate on destroying hornet nests and bait trapping.
But the authors say these methods are not enough to completely eradicate the species.
The team divided costs into three main categories - prevention of the invasion, fighting it, and damage caused.
Results estimated yearly cost at £10.5m for France, £8m for Italy and £7.6m for the UK.
In Japan and South Korea, the cost is said to be £17.2m and £10.5m respectively, while in the US it is £23.8m.
Professor Franck Courchamp said: “Definitely more actions need to be taken in order to handle harmful invasive species - one of the greatest threats to biodiversity and ecosystem functioning.”
