Flies, Spiders, Now Bees
We appear to have an insect trifecta today. First it was body-snatching flies, then ambitious spiders. Now we have bee squatters. Remember all the dire, hyperventilating media stories earlier this year screaming that we were all going to die because the bees were disappearing? Surprise. They just turned up.
LILLY, Pa. - Matthew Danchanko has squatters in his new home. And they won't leave without a fight. They're honeybees — tens of thousands of of them. They buzz through the four-bedroom house, creating a low hum and an estimated 100 pounds of honey.
Danchanko recently bought the house northeast of Johnstown, Pa. He planned to fix it up and move in. But shortly after he began renovating, the long-time residents of the house made it abundantly clear they had no intention of leaving.
He's found a local beekeeper to remove the hive.
