>Dear Bee-l netters: >Does anybody know about a beehive-detector? >My point is by using this detector I can easily find >the beehive without following the bees. Is this instrument >really existing? > Dadi Dear Dadi, Some of us recently published a paper that reviews and outlines all methods for locating bee colonies: Wenner, A.M., J.E. Alcock, and D.E. Meade. 1992. Efficient hunting of feral colonies. Bee Science. 2(2):64-70. If you provide me a mailing address, I can send you a copy. (By the way, it is a good idea to place your address, etc., on each e-mail message you send -- it avoids confusion. Best wishes.
