Then, a year later, she demanded I have the NEW behive that formed in an old paint can REMOVED!!! $200 for that one!!!! HEY, These aren't my @#@#@#@ BEES!!! And SHE is the one with a yard full of bright flowers!!! And she wonders why there are bees!

    Who is she that she can legally compel you to do that?

    You should have donated the hives to her.

    Very best tool against yellow jackets is just plain hairspray. And ol' can of it will do. One quick spritz with that and those buggers can't fly anymore! Fun to watch 'em try, tho'. Obviously, works on any flying insect.

    No nasty poisons to worry about, either for you or the environment. No problem with other species being affected, and no danger from fire or anything else. And it works instantly.

    Any petro-based spray will work. WD-40, etc. Dissolves their wings.

    Wrong. This works much better. Get's rid of bees, wasps, hornets, yellow jackets, rats, mice, pesky rodents, etc. etc. etc.

    But not the cockroaches.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    If we can just train them to produce honey instead of merely being nasty, we're set.
