Beekeepers are seeing more and more killer bees

Killer bees and what you know as a honeybee, are he same family. They can interbreed easily, and they do, given half the chance. This is why we are seeing killer bees spreading through out Florida. Doing bee removal in Orlando or Tampa has its share of Killer bees, I have even seen killer bees up north when doing bee removal in jacksonville and St augustine. But killer bees come from the tropics of Africa ( they are called African Killer bees) , they are the wild cousins of our domesticated bees and they like the heat. That’s why we are seeing more and more killers bees in Southern Florida. They think they own the place. Dont take a chance! if you dont know then call a beekeeper. You life might depend on it.
