I lived in various parts of Japan for 9 years and never once saw a "murder hornet" or even heard of them, so hopefully their population is naturally self-limiting and we don't have a cane toad situation here.
Yeah, I'm afraid of heights and small enclosed spaces, but those seem like perfectly rational fears to me so I wouldn't call them a phobia. My mom, though, was locked in a closet by her kindergarten teacher, and now she can't even be in a regular-sized bedroom with the door closed, so I'd say that's reached phobia status.
