BEES ARE TAKING

BEES ARE TAKING

BEES ARE TAKING OVER MY CABIN! ahhhh! OK, so heres the deal; About two weeks ago, at my cabin, my mom and grandma and people saw bees by the lights on the outside of my cabin, and yesterday, my mom opened up the cabnet and she saw this weird stuff in it, and she could see bees through the boards, and she was like OH MY GOSH! and shut the door. So yeah, the bees were crawling inside there from the lights! ahhhh! we had some bee spray, and we were spraying from outside and inside, and my grandma removed everything from the cabnet without getting stung, but then she opened it later and began killing them again and there she got stung. So yeah, I pretty much spent my day outside. Then later we went on our boat, and guess what? You'll never believe it. In the cabnet where we put life jackets and stuff, there was a bees nest in there! WHAT MORE CAN THEY DO? well, anyways, my mom and my aunt got the spray stuff and were spraying and everything...I thinkk that nest is finally gone. So we don't have to worry about that. Later we went to my other aunts house and they had bee trouble as well, you see when you go up the stairs to their house there was a little crack and there was a bees nest in there somewhere. I kinda went up and down those steps quckly. haha so yeah, I hope that the whole cabin dosn't get owned by bees! but my grandma, aunt, and mom are taking care of it. BOY ARE THEY BRAVE! They said that next week they will fill in the cracks or something in the cabnet. I"M SCARED OF BEES!

I'm not sure what kind of bees... i didn't feel like seeing what kind! I'm too scared. hahaha. I'm sure they're not wasps. But we did have a wasps nest once near the cabin, we sprayed it and now they're gone yay! :) yeah, bees are scary. I wish that the kind of bugs that keep everything alive were nicer.

Bees (or at least wasps) are evil. Whenever we have a barbeque (sp?) they always try to land on the food, even the food on our plates!
