Mrs Frugal Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Not content with finding a wasps nest in our old summer house, LSH has now found a White Tailed Bumblebee nest under the floorboards !! Work is very slow now as dozens of bees come buzzing out everytime he tries to do any more demolition . We're determined to keep the bees safe and not harm them in any way.

Cinnamon Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Ahhh - Bless I love bees, despite being a bit allergic to their stings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisnrob Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Wow! Bees are fascinating little creatures - and so industrious! We have a couple of Red Mason Bee nesters in the garden and can spend ages just watching them at work. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smudgley Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Why don't you try & contact someone from a bee society - they will safely remove them. A friend of mine is a bee keeper / bee inspector - I could ask him for a contact near you if you would like me to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couperman Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 We bought a bumble bee house to encourage them in the garden. They are obviously not impressed with it as its still empty after two years. I love bees, hate wasps. Great photos Kate. Kev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
