We had to call the BeeCharmer to collect some HoneyBees under our storage building. She was good at her job. Relocated to her hives and we got a free jar of honey from her hives. Our honey was not consumed.

One of things the BeeCharmer told us was never ever spray poison on the hives, as there are Raider Bees that will seek out other nearby hives to steal the honey that is there. If it has been poisoned then the Raiders will carry it back to their hives and kill off that colony as well.
