I agree with you, Garth, that hives in a house can produce much honey.
But I count this as not being a wild hive. They're living in a man-made
structure and therefore in my opinion, human intervention has taken
place, if not management. Wild hives are hives living in the wild,
trees, holes in the ground, clefts in cliffs, etc. Maybe I should have
replaced human intervention for managed. The spirit of my post remains
true even if you disagree. Before man made insulated homes I don't think
many examples like you're telling us about ever occurred.
