Greetings All,
 
I have a newbee question regarding locating my hives in my backyard.  I have
a 1/2 acre backyard and plan to setup 2 hives on the back property line.
 what would be the best way to position these hives in regards to each other
(i.e., side by side a few feet apart, landing boards away from each other,
etc).  Also when I have to mow the grass, will a riding lawn mower bother the
bees or should I use a weedeater to cut the grass around the hives for like
five feet or more from the hive?  Please post a response to the BEE-L or you
can email me directly at [log in to unmask]  Thanks in advance!
