<font face="arial" size="3"><p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">From Del The Beekeeper</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">I just talked to Cindy and will go over tonight to investigate. What I think is going on is her porch light is confusing bees that are foraging on her magnolia tree and getting stuck in her window screen. Sometimes this can happen. A solution is to turn off the porch light at dusk and then turn it back on when it is dark after the honey bees have safely returned to their hive. </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">I also want to thank the Capitol Hill community for your support of honey bees and for <a href="https://www.dcbeekeepers.org/have-swarm-bees">reporting honey bee swarms to us at The DC Beekeepers Alliance</a>. We rescued many honey bee swarms this spring. <a href="https://www.instagram.com/voss.del/reels/">Here are some fun videos of swarms that I rescued this spring</a>. </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;"><strong>I want to let you know that The DC Beekeepers Alliance does not remove Wasp and Hornet's nests, however. </strong> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">I am happy to advise you and come over if you have a dangerous situation with Yellowjackets or Hornets. This is a hobby for me and not a business, but I do accept and appreciate donations to help support my hobby. I will try to talk you out of removing bald-faced hornet nests in trees unless they are so low that a child or stupid adult could mess with it. <a href="https://photos.app.goo.gl/m5niFrzWRB5Wy1ov5">Here is an example of a dangerous bald-faced hornet's nest</a>.</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">Again, this is a hobby and I do this to make friends with my neighbors. I may not be able to respond immediately. </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">Also, <a href="https://wapo.st/3y2cxN6">The Washington Post ran a nice story about The DC Beekeepers Alliance and our Honey Bee Swarm Rescue last week</a>. </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">You can buy my honey at Hill Kitchen now. </p>
