Steve and I have been working on a new way to stop hive thieves......................and we think we have come up with a solution.

We have bred a very special 'Guard Bee', highly trained, and friendly to the beekeeper, but no one else.

Just two 'Guard Bees' are needed to protect a whole apiary.

The one drawback is that they need a lot of feeding...................

If you keep your hives where that giant bee lives, you should get plenty of honey Roy. Looks like a kind of Eden project bee.
 
I wouldnt want to assemble frames for that f###er.
 
So thats what a native Black Bee looks like. No wonder people rave about them.
 
That's a female Varroa mite at it's rear - you can tell cause it's pregnant and it's tits have enlarged ready to lactate.
 
forget leather gloves, I'd need to buy a full suit of plate mail.

That must be an old picture unless some has altered it to make it look like Alfred Hitchcock is really there...:willy_nilly:
