Wasp monitoring on a European scale
iHornets is a mobile application to track temporal variations in the abundance of wasps in apiaries distributed throughout Europe. This information is key to understanding the impact of wasps on the beekeeping industry and to better prevent and manage the damage they can cause.
Temporal and spatial tracking
The app makes it possible to systematically record variations in the abundance of wasps in beehives distributed across different European territories. This continuous monitoring facilitates the comparison of data in space and time, and provides a solid basis for applied research.
A tool at the service of the beekeeping sector
Quantifying changes in the presence of wasps, especially invasive species, is essential to assess their impact on beekeepers. iHornets makes this information available to the scientific community and the beekeeping sector, contributing to the design of more effective prevention and management strategies.
