Killer bees.

Ironically enough, the Angels’ minor league team is called the Salt Lake Bees.

Some years ago I had an abandoned car on my property. I wanted to get rid of it so I called a junk yard and they brought out a tow truck. Big, burly guy gets out. Tattoos, beard, overalls, the full stereotype. He bent down and looked all underneath the car.

I said, "What are you looking for?"
He said, "Bees. If I start towing this thing and there's a bee hive underneath here, it's gonna be bad."
I said, "What would you do then?"
He shrugged: "Probably run and scream like a little girl."

California DEC will undoubtedly do a full investigation to determine if any bees were inconvenienced.

Swarms are not as bad as disturbing a nest. They don’t have a bunch of work and energy to defend so they are more tame.

Misleading headline.

When moving a swarm, it is helpful to first give it a good spraying of sugar water.

In a pinch, in a ball park, coca cola would do

Highly aggressive African bees can be found pretty much anywhere in the USA where it doesn’t snow.

And replacing the Africanized Queen with a regular European Queen will calm down the hive significantly after about six or seven weeks.

Only the queen lays eggs. The life span for a worker bee is about 6 weeks.

The only problem is if a newly hatched European Queen in impregnated by an Africanized Drone.

A few years ago, I ran over a ground nest in my back yard with my lawn mower.

I had no idea I could still run so fast!

I slammed the patio door and thought I was safe. When I went to sit down to catch my breath, I felt a burning sensation in my leg. I realized then that I had several bees in my pants leg!

I had no idea I could get my pants off so fast!

Africanized Drone

Woah!

Look out, Pelham; they may be coming your way!
