    In Florida, Honeybee Colonies often establish themselves as “exposed” colonies. Evidently, Survival rates are excellent even when exposed to the elements. Mites, which pose a serious threat to honeybees, have difficulty clinging to these units as many fall to the ground and cannot reenter the colony.

    The above colony has engineered a beautiful set of yellow combs. When bees forage on the nectar of Brazilian Pepper Plants ( extant in Tampa Bay ), this coloration is produced. The honey is lemon colored and used in many bakery products.

    Live removal involves smoking the bees away from the combs, attaching the combs within a wood frame, and then shaking the bees onto the frames of combs.
