Justin> A few were more aggressive than the rest, but once the pheromones
are in the air in a yard, even a normal hive will turn defensive.



Not my experience, in fact, my experience is quite the opposite. A defensive colony can be in the middle of other colonies with much milder temperament and they behave normally. What pheromones are you referring to?
