Sitting at my desk by an open window, I see a Giant Aisian Hornet (suzumebachi) fly in, wander about the room (quite normal), inspecting my face from a few centimeters away (not as normal, and a little scary) and she disappears up through the hole in the ceiling that leads to my loft where there is already an old abandoned wasp nest twice the size of a basketball. About an hour later (another?) wasp flies in and heads up into the loft. It happens again one more time after that. Possibilities: 1) It is the same hornet that either exited the room when I was not looking, or flew out a hole in the loft walls. 2) They are three different hornets using pheromones to call their friends and they are now having a party up there If it is the same one, going in and out, is it a queen who has found a place to build her nest and start a colony? If it is a queen, do I allow her to build the colony in anticipation of the delicious hornets and larvae I will get to eat in the event I manage to survive the summer?
