I used 'B' day to try to draw attention to the over use of insecticides which is partially responsible for the decline in bee numbers. http://www.ajsendall.com/bees/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16798501960596641239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932656899356120565.post-25319553505043556062015-04-04T05:40:48.478-07:002015-04-04T05:40:48.478-07:00I'm never the one who goes into the hives, I&#...I'm never the one who goes into the hives, I'll leave that up to him. besides they recognize him. I sit and watch them buzz around. I've been lucky enough to be able to enjoy them closely while they work. Getting a buzz by is very common around here. :) Alleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040495565517859051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932656899356120565.post-57353067348139384892015-04-04T05:38:29.904-07:002015-04-04T05:38:29.904-07:00Thanks for stopping by!

They are great pollinators too. As a beekeeper, I'll say thanks for the others in your area for helping out the bees. Keeping bees is fun and work at the same time but it's worth it, I hope you get a chance to work with them someday.Alleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040495565517859051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932656899356120565.post-70712545697434793132015-04-04T05:35:27.021-07:002015-04-04T05:35:27.021-07:00I hope the remedy helped!

The bees are everywhere at the moment with all the flowers coming out and trees in blossom. Your tobacco and spit remedy was mentioned to my wife the other day after a bee stung her. Hopefully she won't need it again.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09165924940988488163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932656899356120565.post-12776528127959527202015-04-02T13:10:52.864-07:002015-04-02T13:10:52.864-07:00I have some Carpenter/Mason Bee house plans pinned...I have some Carpenter/Mason Bee house plans pinned on Pintrest!

But when I was little my family swore by tobacco and spit as a paste. Now I'd say vinegar, baking soda and meat tenderizer as a paste. I guess I should have some of all of that around just in case. Bees get a bad rap for being aggressive, generally if treated with respect they won't feel compelled to defend their hive. After all bees don't survive the sting, wasps on the other hand is different..Alleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040495565517859051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932656899356120565.post-84042230413026420412015-04-02T07:18:40.908-07:002015-04-02T07:18:40.908-07:00That looks dangerous!
