swarm-list Mailing List: Re: EAST Pleasanton just a little south of Vinarard and Isobel - claim that honey bees are in a Rosemary bush

[Sung Lee (sungleethebeecharmer]

It is yellow jackets. 

But what I don't understand is she called two different pest control companies.  And both confirmed they are honeybees.  To be sure I caught two bees and Yes they are Yellow Jackets. And found nest under the bush in the ground. When I poked it then they were coming out like crazy.

I asked to make a donation to the club.

The caller claims the bees have been in the bush for about 3 weeks,
and further states the bush is not blooming, so not just foragers.

I've looked at a video, which is not conclusive.  No close-up of an insect.

I detect they're a little fed-up.
There are things that don't quite add up.

Does anyone live close to Bolla Court in south-east Pleasanton close to the livermore boarder
who could take a look?  Can we impose on you, please, to call 925 963-9956
