An Asian hornet nest has been located on the south side of Cork City, near where one of the invasive insects was discovered earlier this month. 

Minister of State Christopher O'Sullivan said he could not confirm the exact location of the nest, but said the National Park and Wildlife Service (NPWS) was working on the best way to remove it.
