Hi Guys,

I don't know much about the AHB's in the northeast. But, from personal
experience, they are unlike any bee I've encountered in 35 years of
commercial beekeeping. I just can't image any beekeeper wanting the
liability for a single hive of them in any environment.

And I know that those same regulators who will quaranteen a whole semi-load
of bees for a single fire ant don't care how many of them are hauled FROM
California. I've unloaded several semis from California with enough fire
colonies living between the hives and the straps, to leave the entire
flatbed covered with stay fire ants. Hummmm :>)))) What could be next?

Regards
Dennis
