Firefighters removed a giant hornet's nest by setting it ablaze in an apartment in eastern China's Shanghai on September 10.
The video shows a 1.2-metre-long and 0.6-metre-wide rectangle-shaped hornet's nest on a wall in a flat.
A fireman wearing protective clothing sprayed fire to try and clear the insects.
After around half an hour, the nest was completely cleaned.
The video was provided by local media with permission.
