Title: African bee in MS
Post by: Haddon on April 16, 2013, 12:49:56 pm
Well last night I went to a bee meeting with the VP of state association as guest speaker.
He told us they had destroyed 4 Africanized hives last year in the state. No big deal 2 packages from texas one swarm on a army truck that might have come from the same state. The only one that would say its not just a import is this one
