Bee hives are everybodies Darlin’…
I’ve been doing this with Ace Bee Removal for over 22 years, and have never seen such demand for bees. So many people are calling me, wanting to buy a beehive, that there is no way to keep up with the orders. It wasn’t that way three years ago. Even as recently as 2006, beekeeping [… Read More]

But the [… Read More]
Restart of the blog
Originally published 2/9/2009 Well here it goes again, I hope this time I am not hacked and deluged with porn links like last time. It has been a relatively tough year so far for the bees, a lot of cold and snow. So far, I think they are all doing pretty well, at least the 33 [… Read More]
