Hey all:
I have a honey bee nest in a tree hole in the back yard at my GF'S house in Mansfield Ohio. I know that honey bees are not dangerous my dad raised them for many many years. I also know that they can be captured & re-located easliy enough using "queen farmone/sent" I can easliy get rid of them using conventional means but the hive would be a good addition to someones bee farm. They are in a old maple that is about 5' across and has a hole softball sized in the trunk at 4' off the ground which does go back in a ways perfict bee home really. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif usually inhabitated by black birds in spring but this hive showed up yesterday.
anyhow is there anyone close to mansfield who would "BEE" /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif interested in them? I'll be getting rid of them with in a week as the woman is pretty allergic to them.
I'll give them a week or so to respond and I'll check the local paper / phone book to see if anyone would be interested as well.
