Barry's experiences with SHB match my own, in the sense I never lost a scut
hive to them. The strangest thing I ever saw in a scutillata hive was a
huge beatle, about twice the size of a drone, which I've seen in bee hives
and wild wasp nests. Boy, do they cause havoc! A little teeny head, which I
assume is to minimize areas to attack, and a smooth, hard body. I guess
this is the large hive beatle, and I'm glad they're not here in California.
