Me oh my, we have bees.....

[Rumi in Hawaii]

Mahalo, Carol, for the info on decimating the entire hive, which I truly would not do for anything, so it's ixnay on the spraying. We'll get it figured out. Frankly, like I said, I'm hoping they are just scouting around for a new place. Both David and I have had hives in the past, but don't want to start one here. So we'll see what happens. Yes, it would be an onerous task to foam or caulk all the openings - our house is post and pier, and up 8 feet from the ground. Plus, it would cut down on the ventilation under the roof dramatically. I was told by my builder today that birds are a worse problem in the roof than bees... guess we'll just have to really keep a watch.

Thanks again on the heads up about spraying. it's a reminder of two quotes I just read in "Permacopia, Book I":

"When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe." John Muir

"Thou canst not stir a flower without troubling of a star." Francis Thompson
