One of these things does not belong…well, really neither thing belongs but bee poop in the middle of February is not too uncommon. Â There are usually a few warmish days here and there where the bees can get out and flex their…guts. Â It has been a super mild winter for us so the bees have actually had a pretty regular schedule for keeping…regular. Â I guess it has been awhile though because on Wednesday when it was so sunny (and I was out of town for work), the bees covered my car in yellow poop.
Now I know you are wanting to ask so go ahead and ask – Warren, does bee poop stink? Â For science, of course, I decided to do the sniff test. Â I am (not so) pleased to report that I have an answer…bee poop does stink! Â Now I didn’t take too many samples, but we may have to let other labs verify my results. Â So, dear friends, you have just witnessed science in action!
In other science news, mosquitoes do not belong.
Also, mosquitoes do not belong outside in February, but just last week as I returned from the great out of doors and a dirty rotten mosquito followed me in the house. Â I know what she was after. Â Mosquitoes don’t care a lick for me but they absolutely love Emily. Â I really don’t mind mosquitoes themselves, but the was they make Emily whine and fuss is my problem. Â I killed that dang whine-making mosquito in a preemptive strike. Â I have no regrets. Â It had to be done.
Since we are doing science here, folks, I want to take an opportunity to draw the correlation between bee poop and skeeters. Â I checked around and 9 out of 10 living creatures agree – both bee poop and skeeters stink! Â There you have it! Â Science rules!
Stay tuned dear friends, in our next post, we will discuss the maths!
