I sure don't flaunt them, but my neighbors LOVE my bees!!! Bumper crops for ALL of them with mango, avacado, papaya, bananas, etc! They may not want to 'play' with my bees, but are appreciative they are here! I even have a next door neighbor selling her house...she makes sure she shows them my Apiary! She says she wants them to know they are here... It's been interesting to hear the replys!! Everything from PERFECT!!! to Oh Hell no!!! Helps keep the Rif Raff out... :-D
