Are y'all saying that the honey not good anymore after the bomb? That person must not like grilling very much.

He's really lucky that they didn't migrate from the BBQ to his house!

People like that really **** me off. Any beekeeper would have been more than happy to come and remove them without killing them. Way to compound the problems bees are already facing from CCD, pesticides, Varoa, Trachea mites, AFB, EFB, Nosema, SHB, and wax moths. EDIT I hope he and his family starve ... the rest of us are going to if bees keep getting wiped out at the rate they have been. :mad:

i agree, sgtmaj

i had a colony over-night in one of my trees a couple of weeks ago. it was easy to find beekeepers who wanted new colonies. having to climb too high up trees usually breaks the deal, under bbq cover would have been simple.

not cool

My wife has a very bad allergy to bees so i would not have hesitated to do the same thing, i would rather kill a million bees than risk my wifes life

I agree.... if you read everything the guy wrote, i believe he just thought it was a nest. The funny thing about yellow jackets and honey bees is that they sound the same when you cant see them! :)
