Re: Bees
If they are Bumble Bees as the OP says they do not store honey as such. And afaik, beekeepers will not collect Bumble Bees for you in the same way as they would gladly collect a swarm of Honey Bees. It’s worth repeating that it’s important to know what type of bees you are dealing with before decidi...

Re: Bees
You need to ID the type of bee (Bumble Bee, Honey Bee, Solitary Bee etc.) They all behave differently. Some swarm, some don’t. Some will go away in a few weeks. Some won’t. Don’t hurt them

Re: 5G tower torching.
It's funny, in their desperation for the world to make sense/humans to have some sort of agency over things, they come up with this hair brained nonsense. It used to be gods controlling everything, now it's massive conspiracies. Quite shrewd, that. Both generate illogical hysteria to varying degrees.
