I've seen plenty of bumble bees around my flowering shrubs, but no honey bee sightings. It is a concern.

I had thought about that too, but where I live it's not feasible (too many nocturnal intruders to contend with).

If the lawn care chemical concern is valid, you may be fighting a lost battle from the start if you have neighbors that treat their lawns with that stuff.

Reminds me of an old neighbor who thought that the issues of their neighbor's yards had no effect on theirs, like bugs, birds and weeds wouldn't cross property lines.

Hopefully if you try, you will be successful and get a decent honey harvest!

Scary stuff. Imagine what those pesticides are doing to our health too.

Amanita Muscaria. The Mongols use to have one guy eat the mushroom and the rest would drink his pee as the hallucinogenic properties were not diluted in the pee.

No boat, back in the suds.
