Well, it seems that the missing bees around here have been found. There was
a clip on the local news this weekend that some people in a neighboring
county found out they had a bee problem in their daughter's playhouse. They
actually called a bee-keeper instead of the local pest control. (good 4
them!) When the bee-keeper arrived with all his gear, he wound up
"catching" 60,000 bees! They reported that he still didn't get all the
bees, but did get the main portion of them. There were several honey combs
too. Reportedly had 13 gallons of honey. While I don't really wish for
that many bees around my house - I would go for 20 thou or so.
