Bees & Beekeeping

Source of bees under potted plant, Help!!

18 years ago

I found out where the bees are coming from! My friend across the street has a hive in her roof!

Does anyone know of a beekeeper that may want to remove them in Downey/Los Angeles area?

They don't seem to be overly aggressive.

Thanks for the help! :)

P.S. they look just like the picture of the bees in the message "Show and Tell your Hive."
