Hi John

> Will bees chew through nylon string or fishing wire? 

I've seen plenty of bees trying, I don't think I have seen an example of 
their success. I have come across the odd strand of nylon sticking out 
of a comb, but in most cases I have put that down to physical damage 
during beekeeper manipulation.
