  • Recently, the number of hornet is rapidly increasing because of change in the ecological climate. It gives a sense of threat to the people and damages the beekeeping industry as a predator of honey bees. Firefighters are working to remove hornet and vespiary, but it has been reported that it is difficult to remove at high altitudes. In this study, an ultra-light flying device was developed to remove vespiary. It has been developed in four types: Drug spray type, Clamp type, Cutter type, and Scraper type, which can be used as field-customized equipment. Therefore, the developed equipment is expected to contribute to the safe field activities of firefighters.
