Tell me about it. We went riding at Mt. Magazine Sunday, and I was stung twice by honey bees. Once on the right side of my neck and once on the left. Matching bee stings. :fmad:

Yes, the lady bugs and bees are horrible. My house in being invaded by ladybugs! I don't remember ever seeing them like this years back. Just noticed it in the last 4 or 5 years really.

Are honey bees attracted to rice? :dunno:

Lots of bees, caught a couple in the house and I carefully put them outside.
Too many bees dying these days, we need them around. But hornets are a different story, I smash 'em all!!!

They know that it is going to be a rough winter and they are stocking up getting ready.

Thanks for the link, BeagleFan. That was an interesting read. :thumb:
You weren't really wrong. According to the article, Japan was included as one of the Asian countries from which the beetles came.
