Honeybees and picnics
I have 2 hives 3 weeks old and they drink from my birdbath and fountain in the back yard. We rarely have company over 2-4 people. Next month we are having a large gathering, cookout, the whole nine yards. My hives are in the far corner, no issue but they fly from the water to the hive all the time, so I see them buzzing through the back yard. I am not to worried about someone getting stung in the flight path, but will they be attracted to the food at the picnic table? There is where I am concerned about someone getting stung....
Thanks Jerry
