Hall of Shame

Welcome to the beekeeping Hall of Shame: where only the lowest, most ridiculous practices concerning bees and beekeeping are “enthroned.” Ever come face to face with incredible bee ignorance? Have you witnessed blatant bee exploitation? Then you’ve come to the right place! The Hall of Shame aims to concentrate, if only for a few brief moments, on these stories of the absurd.

Examples include:

• eBay seller “bestplans2009″ sells copyrighted plans from Beesource
• “Wasp” trap targets the uninformed – they’re uninformed themselves
• Walgreen’s poor marketing strategy with “Barry’s Busy Bee Honey”
