Bees
g'day ivan,
not saying it couldn't happen but it never posed as a problem with me when i was in the 'burbs and still doesn't pose a problem out here in rural where i have had bee keepers put their hives on my land so their bees could make honey. if it looked like happening i would simply make the entrance hole to the native bee hive smaller as the native bees are wee tiny things comared to the honey bee giant, my bees generally have the best part of their entrance blocked off anyway, dunno why they just do it. i would say delay no longer get yourself a hive, and start enjoying our little friends and if/when you move they are very easy to transport. if you wish to learn more about them there is a couple native bee sites online i have a link to the qld bee keeper who exports them to japan. he is very knowledgeable feel free to ask all the questions and he will answer them. generally it is not best to have 2 hives too close together 500mtr seperation or lots of trees between is the answer, they will fight each other from seperate hives. but for us they are very docile never have a i seen them riled up. i also have wild native hives around but there has been no problems regarding mine conflicting. len snipped -- happy gardening 'it works for me it could work for you,' "in the end ya' gotta do what ya' gotta do" but consider others and the environment http://home.dnet.aunz.com/gardnlen/ |
