With the warm weather finally returning to Greater Manchester, more of us will be soaking up the sunshine in our gardens. But Brits have been warned that the recent heatwaves across continental Europe could impact us over here - in the form of 'deadly' Asian hornets which are drawn to alcohol.

The Asian hornet has attacked ten Britons since it was first spotted in the UK in July and it’s believed more are expected to enter the country due to the high temperatures abroad.
