Any takers???

Free honeybees if you remove
Date: 2010-08-29, 12:50PM

Please rescue these endangered honeybees from my house. With their numbers rapidly dwindling, your expertise in relocating the bees that pollinate our food supply can help all of society. They are entering through a pencil sized hole just above my outside access panel for the dishwasher in an older home. The hole is about 3 feet above ground level. Please contact Doug @ 813.398.7219 to arrange for a pick up time. Thanks

Since those are endangered honeybees, you might could get a government grant to take care of them.  Better them than those VHB I hear about.  :-D

If the VHB's are around NE OH, I better start supplying my hives with some shaved down toothpicks to protect themselves! As a backup, I'll make some tiny crosses to hang around their necks. Bees DO have necks, right? :-D

When you see bees flying around at night in the dark, keep your windows shut.
