bees until tuesday night

[SwampG8r]

i have had bees in my yard for maybe 3 weeks
i have 2 big garbage cans i use to compost garbage
i turrn the moosh into the other can until its compost
back and forth can to can
big plywood piece for a cover
bees moved onto the bottom of the plywood piece made a home
i went to put garbage into compost heap flipped up board and then
it gets a little garbled at that point
they swarmed me and i screamed like a little girl and ran into my house swatting at myself and swearing
no stings had one still on me when i got into the house i slapped his silly butt back outside
no stings though
we have "killer bees 'in florida now as far north as ocala
2 days later kid is mowing my yard before i could warn him not to get near bees
no stings no swarm and "killer bees" do not care for mowers
i asked around and was assured that likely these were indeed honeybees that had swarmed and were holing up in my compost
i found a honey dealer local who was more than willing to come out and get the bees tuesday night
she is glad to get them and is getting a nice new hive all ready for them
