    What's going on there @BeeMan are they dead bees or wasps lying around on the sand ?

    Looks like there is no problems with the wasps taking the bait tho !! Good stuff, get stuck into them.

    Here's a question you might know the answer to "how far does a bee fly from its hive" ??

    I was working in a wetland today poisoning crack willows with XTree Basel and holy shit they were all buzzing with bees after the sticky stuff all over the leaves.

    Couldn't see any hives around but thought there was far to many for them to be wild.

    Most bee activity is approx a kilometre n under. But later in the season when flowering sources start to dwindle they could venture out to a couple kms. The dead bees on the sand are close proximity to a bee site, honey has been harvested, collateral damage. Hope that helps kukuwai.

    Not really sure, possibly. Was back in there again today they are all crack willow and the leaves are very sticky. The place is literally buzzing. thousands of bees all over the leaves ! Only wasps i saw were paper wasps hunting insects !
