Hello All,
Bees in the news .

Naples, Florida:

"Beekeeper called after swarm attacks dogs in Golden Gate"

 I believe the second story illustrates that the professional  beekeeper is
better able to deal with aggressive bees than the average person. The swarm
remover at first recieved 600 stings in his first encounter with AHB.

The  swarm removal video sold by A.I.Root which shows fire departments safe
methods to handle AHB sits gathering dust on store shelves. Southern
California bee clubs need to start going to fire departments and showing the
video. Fire trucks carry the equipment allready and all extra needed is
common grocery store liquid soap. Fire departments many times are first on
the scene.

The Midwestern Beekeepers Assn. has shown the A.I.Root video to most fire
departments in the K.C. area and has bought the video for our library.
Checking out the video, making an appt. with the fire department and going
and showing the video is a fun experience and  could save a life.
