Prior to 1989, bees were plentiful throughout the US. However, during the early 1990s the varroa mite practically decimated all the wild hives throughout the country, and greatly reduced the number of colonies kept by beekeepers. Then in 2006, Colony Collapse Disorder wiped out another big chunk of honey bee colonies among commercial beekeepers. The media quickly educated America about what would happen if all the honey bees died out.
Many people began doing their part by safely removing honey bees from their homes instead of killing them. You can help too. Please do not try to poison the honey bees in your home or on your property.
If you are within driving distance of us, we will do our part to safely remove the honey bees for a nominal fee. If we are too far away, we will help you contact a beekeeper in your area. Feel free to call us at: 217-427-2678. Thank you for helping save the honey bees that we need so much! |
