Bees

Wasps and hornets get priority treatment.  You don’t want to get stung; we like killing them.

Honey bees are different.  We prefer not killing them unless a bee keeper has declined to take them, since there is a shortage of this beneficial insect.

These honey bees decided to nest in an old duck house.

That was in summer.  A lot of bees stayed outside fanning the hive to keep the wax from melting.When a hive is killed off, the remaining honey will leak when it gets hot and the wax comb melts.

Here are scavengers from three different nests claiming that leaking honey.  A bee keeper called and asked us to handle it.  We did.
