    Re: The austrlian distraction

    I fully agree. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy but a little incident like this that's missed is all it takes.

    Re: The austrlian distraction

    A post is a post. Anyone can make a claim. Do you have a responsible news report that reports this?

    Re: The Australian Distraction Defense

    I read it, and I read it carefully, and yes I picked up the condecending tone too. You seem to be fine ignoring the evidence that there's no smoking (puin intended) gun in Australia but seem to be...

    Re: The Australian Distraction Defense

    But where's the evidence that bees in Australia are not okay? I've heard nothing to indicate otherwise. I could make all types of claims of Australian bees but if there's no evidence they are...

    Re: New Smoker Design

    Wow. That's actually impressive looking. What appear to be injection molded plastics and a very thought out ergonomic design. I would like to see/hear it in action, see it's size relative to...
  6. Re: Do drones consume significant amounts of honey?

    I do drone trapping in the Spring and Fall. I replace drone frames in the Spring to screw up the mites numbers so they can't build up to critical mass. I let them make drones as they wish mid...
  7. Re: Petition: Direct the EPA to ban the use of Neonicotinoid pesticides

    I assumed you'd avoid answering the question on the "chemtrail theory" you champion as well. I'm showing that another theory you strongly support with "supporting scientific data" as also all flash...

    Ah yes, chemtrails. Please bask us with your brilliance on chemtrails won't you Borderbeeman?

    Hilarious! yep, you got me. I don't start post after post of anti Neo-nic rants... or musicals.

    Hey, wait a second... which of the Four (or is it Five now?) Dog defenses did you use on me that...

    Re: This was awesome!

    I was thinking the same thing but getting them out of a water meter is supposidly an AHB trait too. I've pulled 2 out of water meters up here a couple years ago. There's no AHB up here and they've...
  11. Re: Petition: Direct the EPA to ban the use of Neonicotinoid pesticides

    Okay, let's follow your logic. So what are you? I'd say you're one of the Anti-Neonic Chief Propogandists. What do you think we expect you to say. You're convinced Neonics are the worst...

    Re: The Australian Distraction Defense

    I stayed at a Holiday Inn last night (Bayer, Monsanto, etc picked up the tab). Now I can speak as an authority too about Australia!

    Re: Neonicotinoids The Four Dog Defense

    From 6:59 to 7:30 Borderbeeman apparently had too much coffee and free time. It ended with "European Science just crushed your gonads in a vice." Does that honestly pass for civil? Not sure what...

    [QUOTE=rhaldridge;933161] industry flak-catchers [QUOTE]

    To disagree with with what's labeled as a semi-hysterical post earns that title? Speaking for myself, I've been called worse by better. I...

    Yea, but, but, Dr. Little is from big evil Bayer! Anything she says is obviously bought and paid for by Big Ag. Wait, you quoted her therefore you're one of their shills too. It can go on for...

    Re: Best way to manually release a queen?

    Personally I use small marshmallows to release queens. I put them in my mouth to get them wet and starting to disolve. Push it into the uncorked opening gently. The bees will start licking at it...

    Re: Frame filling "machine" update

    From what I've read the "non intervention beekeeping" approach is along the lines of prefering to be a Beehaver to an actual Beekeeper. It's a new term that sounds more sophisticated and is created...

    Re: swarm abort?

    Great follow up. Did you ever find any swarm cells, if so where were they hiding? Had you done any checkerboarding, or were they left to their own with you observing?

    Re: Article on five formulated fungicides

  21. Re: Ban Bee Poison 2,500,000 have signed already!

    Antibiotics are meant to kill something too. Do you want to ban them as well? Logically you're cool with having lice, fleas, ticks, mosquitos, mites, etc (and eventually the diseases they carry) to...

    What are they actually going to ban and why (actual scientifically based repeatable findings not inuendos and feelings)? The petition says nothing of this. Without knowing this, this merely means...

  25. Re: Negative Environmental Impacts caused by Honeybees

    Sounds good until someone "steals" your hives because you don't have permission to put them there. I'm not about to put my hives where I don't have clear permission from the landowner.
