The basketball-sized nest was hidden inside the hollow of a tree, in woods two hours north of Seattle, officials said.
It is the first nest of the 2-inch-long, venomous insects — real name “Asian giant hornets” — to be successfully located after almost a year of worrisome individual sightings near the British Columbia border.
