Don't much care so long as they don't come here.

Therefore DO NOT IMPORT BEES or queens or other genetic matter!


There is a house not far from me that used to have "HIVES" in its walls... listed in the Bee Bol Book !

I daresay there is space for five million hives in Arizona - I wouldn't dipute that. At the other extreme (under-exaggerating instead of exaggerating) there might only be two.

Where the Mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea, the bees are more friendly and the beekeepers don't kick the hives and run

well what do you expect? If someone ripped your home apart wouldn't you retaliate and defend your family in any way you could.

Watch part 2, not only hives in walls, but also bee bites and native Honey bees - in America!?
Thought they only had stingless before importation.

I think we should import some of those, and cross breed them with some imported French AMM.

Ideal for small urban gardens or allotments maybe

Didn't the mad monk do that in the last century with disastrous results ?​

The supply of French AMM,s is sorted...now to the others,maybe drone semen.

Better to import some French wine, or Australian, better quality.

Sorry Guys,
Am I missing something here. If I did this to my two big hives they would go mad. One of the very experienced beekeepers in my society stated if you get stung it is because you mishandle the bees which may be somewhat of an overstatement, but should we peddle this on our forum?

Would they also follow you en masse, stinging you, for maybe a mile or more.
