>> If you see a swarm, you should avoid them and not try to distract the bees.

>> The bees also went to another house on a street

I suppose the entails confinement and/or running.

They have bees on asteroids (or dwarf planets to be PC)?

There were about 4,200 bees inside the hive, which equals about three pounds of bees

---

4200 bees would not be very many for a hive. 42,000-60,000 bees would be closer to what a hive might contain.

When bees swarm they become remarkably docile. They no longer have a hive to protect so they won’t likely sting unless hurt. If one is careful it is possible to pick up several pounds of bees with bare hands without being stung.

When a bee stings you, it leaves a chemical message to its sisters that says “sting here”. So if you get stung once, you are likely to get stung several times if you hang around. Africanized bees are notorious for pursuing people/animals a lot farther than regular honey bees.

I’m surprised they are allowed to have bees in a neighborhood like that. I would think they would need to be out in the country.

Poor pit dog. Helluva way to go.

Commuter bees. Mom had to drive them to school, coz they missed the schoolbuzz.

brand new hive

[piasa]

was trying to harvest honey from his beehive ...There were about 4,200 bees inside the hive, which equals about three pounds of bees, and for an unknown reason, the bees began attacking the beekeeper

Accidently "harvest" the queen's royal jelly, did you?

A swarm of bees killed a dog, injured a beekeeper and a firefighter and prompted residents living in a Ceres neighborhood to be under a shelter-in-placer order, according to an official with the Ceres Fire Department.

Bees. Shelter in place. WTF?

What has become of the United States of America?

[VTenigma]

This story is bogus. We know all the bees are dead, because niconoids. sarc.

[mom4melody]

I was stung once 27 times when we kept bees, buy I’m not allergic to honey bees.

I’m betting there were more like 20,000 bees in the hive that swarmed.

[Kickass Conservative]

Those darn Assault Bees again. Time for more Bee Control.
