Rick, That has been considered. They are w/in 2000 feet or the Tennis Club. But there is a stinky, swampy pond on the high school property that I assume the CHS bees use. There was an earlier pesticide kill at CHS affecting one hive. It did not kill the colony, but weakened it. It has been supplemented with brood from the healthy hive and we are feeding both hives. Unless there is another kill Don Hopkins felt it is likely that the weakened colony will be able to rebuild sufficiently to overwinter. We've been monitoring the CHS hives closely since we learned of the Tennis Club's actions. John Rintoul (919) 414-4071
