I keep honeybees in an absolutely bee-proof T shirt and flip flops.
Don't go killing anything until you learn a little about it, you might
just want to share some space with it.

An absolutely radical idea. A lot of folks think anything that crawls is there just to irritate them and ought
to be killed.

I was at an outdoor restaurant the other day, and the place had some kind of flowering shrub that had loads of
honey bees around. The first ones I've seen in years. See bumble bees fairly often, but honey bees are
scarce. Used to hunt frogs when I was a kid, and you could hardly take a step without scaring one up. If we
killed fewer critters with indiscriminate poisoning, there would probably be more natural bug killers around.
