To top it off, she is obviously an Anti-Dentite.
Set a loaded swarm trap beside them and walk away. Come back in an hour and pick up your non-compliant cardboard box (full of bees) you got for free at the grocery store and walk away.
I didnt tell them crazy bees to come and freeload off of the nice wooden boxes I make and keep in my back yard. I want these boxes empty so dumb people can just buy them from me and set them in their yards so they can be like me. The boxes are of no use to me when they are full. The bees cram them full of waxy crap and sticky runny bee vomit that almost makes the keeping of nice empty wooden boxes for my personal pleasure not worth the hassle. Almost.
I’m with you. Being Texan is wrapped around an attitude.
“leave us alone and we will get along fine, if that is not satisfactory, we’ll deal with it”
note my tagline:
Texas is not where you were born, but a Free State of Heart, Mind & Attitude!
Vigilant maintenance.
They couldn’t install one.
Well where my folks live (up a forest service road) it’s heavily forested so where the tanks would be you couldn’t see them from the road; secondly they’re backed up to over two hundred sq/mi of the Olympic National Forest and thirdly, they get their water from an aquifer that’s 260ft down - they were told it was an eight ft. wide river over 30 ft. deep. The county wanted to put a meter on it but the folks told them to go pound sand - the water comes from federal land.
“Vinyl siding”
We went with Hardieplank siding and PVC trim...composite board for the wraparound front porch/steps and Ipe (pau laupe/Ironwood) for the deck. The only exterior softwood on the house now is the treated lumber framing under the front porch and the deck. And that’s what they’re boring into.
Does this idjit know of the many places bees will build a hive- such as rafters in a house? I’m thinking,”no”.
But besides that there is no need for this legislation. None. Beekeepers and others who remove hives do not need more training or oversight.
So much for 'treated' lumber!................Try OIL BASED STAIN.........................
Probably next to protect licensed exterminators.
HA! We have a Hardie Board manufacturing plant in our little town. Pretty nice stuff...and heaaaavvvyy
I’ve stood in the middle of swarming bees. They call’em drones for a reason. My neighbors thought I was nuts.
can now move on to less urgent matters like bees and plastic straws.
You stole that line from me didn’t you? (Not really) I’ve been using that line on people for years.
