Y'all are right these are some neat little suckers. The plan now is to sell some honey next summer. We had been seeing lots of honey bees and I was reading about them online. I came across some stuff about swarm boxes. So I built some boxes and bought some lemon grass oil. It was just for something to do. I told the wife that if we catch some I'd sell them once they got established. Well now we're bee keeping. Haha. We didn't sell a one of those swarms. Heck I didn't think we'd catch any to tell you the truth. The first one we cought was the day after I hung the boxes. It was so big that I literally thought a trash bag had blown across the box. It was flat covered with bees. Real neat to say the least. I got one on video landing on the trap and melting into the entrance hole. That was really something to see. I was standing right in the middle of a big swirling cloud of bees. Never got stung either. I was about to blast out of there several times because they was getting on me pretty good. But I hung around and made a pretty neat cell phone video.
