<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Nyatii, post: 3316487, member: 85686&quot;]Love it! Great looking haul Alegandron.</p><p><br /></p><p>I had 12 hives at one time. Truly enjoyed working and watching them. The most honey I took off of one hive was over 100 lbs. It was by accident. I was going to move the hives and ended up leaving one, but stacked all the extra supers onto that one just to let the bees keep them clean. I wasn&#039;t able to come back all summer, and when I did, it was a chore to remove the top supers. The bees had filled every one. I had them stacked 6 foot tall. </p><p><br /></p><p>I didn&#039;t like wearing all the bee keeping clothing, so ended up working them in shorts and tennis shoes. What most people don&#039;t know is that you can smell the bees when they get excited and you can just back off for awhile until they calm down. </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, for those people that aren&#039;t allergic, most will build up an immunity to the sting. Not always true, but for most. It got where I would rather be stung by a bee than bite by a mosquito. The sting was brief, but the mosquito would itch for hours or days. The most stings I received at one time was when I had the brilliant idea to capture a swarm that was 20 feet up a tree. Got stung 21 times.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
