| It was June 6, 2000. I got a call from someone who says bees nesting in his house swarmed. Might be mite resistant? Could give it try. But the swarm is like 30 ft up in a tree! Viewed: 1489 times. | | | |
| I was smiling when going up the ladder. But after being stung a few times up there, 30 feet up in the tree, I though it was not a good idea to risk my life for the bees, mite-resistant or not... The swarm was too far from the main trunk, and we had trouble cutting the branch. I ended up trying to shake the branch and let bees drop. Most workers did drop, but then they flew back in the mid-air. This must be awesome to watch on a video (but I think David Wang, the video-cameraman, ran away with others when they saw bees rained down!). Viewed: 1374 times. | | | |
| The owner of the house tried to shake more bees down. I was inspecting the cardboard box to see how many bees we got. Viewed: 1348 times. | | | |
| hmmm. Not that many bees!
Viewed: 1419 times. | | | |
| The swarm looking about the same size when we left... Viewed: 1468 times. | | |
