swarm-list Mailing List: Re: Extraction in Martinez in post holding up deck above patio

[Claire Lussier (lussier.claire]

If it’s helpful to anyone, here are two pics that demonstrate the damage poisoning bees causes to the wood when other insects move in to eat the dead bees, their comb etc.. Obviously people should not use poison and should care about other creatures but in the event they don’t, I find they usually care about their houses structural integrity. 

First, same wall, no comb, no poisoned bees. 

Second, same wall, insects chewed into the wood, other insects gained access to the grain and moisture seeped in.

Why would anyone from the Club get involved with someone who poison the bees , aside morality , you need to consider your own health as that garbage will not affect you imediatly but years fown the road in most time without any possinle recovery .

Let them clean their own cesspool.

She poisoned the bees two weeks ago and put steel wool in the holes. Either those bees opened new holes to escape, bc poisoning bees is not a long term solution, or a new swarm found another hole and moved in. 

The post is stuccoed over foam and still has space for intrusion. 

They do not actually want to pay or not close to what this will cost, especially since someone will now be dealing with a bunch of poison.
