Do you worry about Africanized bees in your area? I think that is the only thing that keeps me from trying to raise bees.

We have not had a report in this area of a hive becoming africanized, so it is not really anything that concerns us. If it were to happen, we would destroy the hive and keep on going.

Don't let that worry keep you from trying some bees. Maybe you could contact a local beekeepers group and see if they've had any problems. There are beekeeper directories online that will give you contact numbers and email addresses.
