    " Maybe the firefighters should called the zoo before killing this hive. Last news story said that the honey bees are dying and we need to help save as many as possible.
    Without them, forget food, flowers, trees, etc!
    Please think the next time that you see a bee on the sidewalk, or harmful place. Take a stick, or grass and place them out of harms way! I do it all of the time. Especially in swimming pools. I saved 5 from Cancun last Nov that were skinning dipping!
    Have a great summer everyone. "
