They say killer bees will venture into all the states I can't see them invading Minnesota Montana and Alaska. But they say those killer bees are getting iused to cold wearher. Those jokers are bad news.
We had a nest of bees build a nest on the side of a tractot wheel In less than a week it was the size of a football. Bees are very important. But this chemtrails or all the cell phone towers or something is killing the bees. This new technology will mean soon we'll have so many cell towers it will affect our health. It seems much of this new technology is not worth the trade off in how it affects us.
So you think the cell towers are all to blame?
YA the ole canary in a coal mine--RDY-B
Patriot; you can stop the damage from cell towers cheaply and easily. Just make an aluminum foil "hat" to cover each hive. Make one for yourself also, that fits inside your helmet or beesuit. I recently doubled my personal shield up as I've found that two layers are effective against those pesky voices from space.
When I hold my cell phone to my ear I hear "voices".

I don't like the term "Killer Bees".
I tried to make little foil hats for all my bees, but they wouldn't wear them.
The problem with your "Killer" bees is not that they are affected by the cold, they're the same bees as the European types, just inclined to be more defensive.
These bees are also more inclined to swarm and build smaller colonies. This gives them a disadvantage in colder areas because they tend to freeze out in the winter.
Now what's got me wondering is what is a "Tractot?"

dang I can't hear anything.
perhaps an advantage to deafness associated with working in metal fabrication shops?????
I love them Africanized bee's aka killer bee's that's the majority of bee's back home in AZ. and they make great honey production and yeah they happen to be a bit more aggressive but that's why you have a bee suit and Vail for remember!!! I only wear the suit when I get a new Conley in and work them for a few months then all I wear is just my Vail... and a long sleeve shirt with a collar.

Don't think you need to worry about the cell phones. Motorola strapped radios and cell phones to pigs heads (I'm not kidding) for years and years and the pigs did not complain of brain damage or say they were hearing voices.

The "Killer Bee" phrase is strictly Hollywood.
Any bee that can kill any one is because that person is highly allergic to be venom, whether it is a bee, wasp or any other stinging insect, Or, takes more stings than the body can handle. No one seems to complain as much and the media doesn't blow it up About "Killer Wars" or "Killer Cars" or "Killer People".
Come on people, get real. Face it, we are living in a "Killer Time". :)don2
My guess is that southern queen breeders have shipped them all over the country in the last couple of decades, and we know that the USDA shipped them all over the country from the late 40's to the late 60's. They were all Africanized years ago. And besides, as someone already said, the AHB are nicer than the old "German" black bees were.
I don't know much about any of the other breads you was talking about Mr. Bush, all I know is that we have mostly Africanized bee's in AZ. and I have about 8 or 9 hives and they all seem to be just fine.. I can even work most of them with out a suit of jacket even... heck when I went and caught a swarm out of a tree I wore only a pair of shorts and tee shirt... so I am not afraid of them "killer bee's" as you said before all bee's can be killers its just the persons make up if they can take it or not....
yeah I have had some bad stings when I first was learning this last spring and got stung real bad about 80 times from a mean hive I had and all that happend was my ankle's swelled up the size of large grape fruits. and hurt to walk for a day or two.... but after that OMG it was great...
The arthritis in my ankles was gone for like a whole month no pain at all.

Yeah, but Who the hell were they talking too?
Motorola has a Pig Whisperer!
