Be interesting to see a photo of the cone they produced. The ones we saw created a kind of tube entrance.<br />Jim Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11512985557177979070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298589991764011204.post-24837323842395864442017-02-03T11:38:21.300-08:002017-02-03T11:38:21.300-08:00We have a group of stingless bees currently buildi...We have a group of stingless bees currently building a beautiful "cone" on the front of our house as I type. I didn't know what they were and removed their contruction numerous times. They just keep coming back. I have never been stung and they haven't come at me in droves. Not sure what to do with them. Like I say, I have removered their cone about 5 times. Each time I do they return.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04143547870834953857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298589991764011204.post-82391807300186037122014-02-27T06:09:29.562-08:002014-02-27T06:09:29.562-08:00Hi, no, we didn't bring any back.

The only insects we were afraid we might have accidentally brought back were bed bugs, which we encountered on our last night's stay. They are AWFUL!Jim Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11512985557177979070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298589991764011204.post-84918038384432978442014-02-26T19:54:20.980-08:002014-02-26T19:54:20.980-08:00Did you bring a hive back' if so I will buy a ...Did you bring a hive back' if so I will buy a swarm if you let me RayGrowTX Gardening & Morehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17034390149960773966noreply@blogger.com
