I am looking for a bee keeper that would like to come and get a nest honey bees of my property. (They are in a dead stump). If I can't find someone then I just get rid of them.

PM me

Oh my, please don't kill them, what with the crisis in the worldwide bee population. Perhaps you should call the University or Dept of Ag.

his name is mr. leonard. hubby is getting the number.

i will tell you we have been eating superb honey for months since he came. he does everything he can to preserve the honeycomb.

oh, and he comes with his daughter as his assistant. She just won the tae-kwon do (or was it ju-jitsu) first place award. Really great family.

Yes, please don't kill them! Onionhead is right. There is a worldwide crisis with bees dying.

I went to the web site above and they are asking for money. My problem is that I have bees and want to find a bee keeper who needs them. Simple! So I think I'll put an ad in the trader to see if there is anyone who wants to come and get them.

I might try to relocate them to another part of my property I kill them.

I think I'll go to the plant place across from Kmart and see if they have any suggestions.

I'm trying.

His name is Charles Leonard he's in the phone book. If you need his number PM.

Here's a recent article regarding his skills:
