That's a relief to hear.  When I first ordered a package, I was told by
an employee of the Weaver's of Texas that US Mail was the only
choice for shipping live bees.  I never questioned this answer.

I agree that UPS does a better job than the US Mail, and is
worth the small difference in cost.  Strange that so many bee
breeders stayed with the US Mail...
