> To answer Pete's question. The commercial beekeepers were here FIRST! I suspect the location in the video has had bees on for many decades. Why a problem location now. 

So, you have a yard of bees next to, say, alfalfa, and you get a great honey crop. Suppose the farmer sells the property and they put in a Walmart. Do you stay, just because it used to be a good location? Locations change in value. You would move in a minute if a location stopped producing honey. So why sit there and get poisoned if there are better locations? If your entire region is corn, then you can't be making a paying crop. Find better locations.
