50,000 Bees in the Wall… and Nobody Noticed?

How can 50,000 bees live inside a wall without anyone noticing? 🐝 It’s more common than you think. People see a few bees flying in and out, never realising there’s a full colony hidden behind the bricks. 🐝 This one was 18 months old, with over 50 kilos of honeycomb, brood, and bees packed into a wall cavity. Proof that killing a nest doesn’t solve the problem, because the real nightmare is the mess they leave behind. — © Hinterland Bees
