Chiggers on the twig and berries are the absolute worst. I hate those vile creatures with an absolute passion. They think foreskin is filet mignon. I will take stinging insects all day over chiggers. ...

Second staying at the Wild Oak ranch. We went last year the first week of August and it was brutally hot. Paid extra for the behind the scenes tour which starts before the park opens and ends right at opening. Got to feed some sea lions, seals, and see the dolphins and belugas up close. Touch sharks...

We stayed on 7 mile area. Booked a full day with Double Trouble charters. Took us to Stingray city, rum point, starfish point, snorkeling a few places. Highly recommend them. Calypso Grill is one of my favorite restaurants. Wahoo Escovitch is awesome as well as their sticky toffee pudding. Rented a...
Yep. Started with kids and absolutely hated them. Now I can’t sleep without one....

I gave my parents one for their yard that was 5 years old. It almost doubled in size in another 5 yrs and had a bumper crop of acorns this year. It just up and died this year and we cannot figure out why. Very bizarre. ...

I couldn’t agree more. People just don’t realize how much work it really is. Also don’t mention how nasty it is. Everything is sticky, not just honey. The wax is sticky, the propolis is sticky. Everything gets nasty. You think it is hot outside, put on a bee suit. I wear a provent and there isn’t a ...

The hive beetles are more of a nuisance than anything. If your hive is weak they can be a problem or if your hive swarms and you have honey boxes on the bees that are left have too much real estate to protect. The hive beetles and wax moths will overwhelm them. Strong hives will keep them in check. ...

Not to my knowledge. I only get the honey. My attention span to do different things with the wax, propolis, and pollen is just not there. ...

Will try it out. Thank you for the recommendation....
I also have the recteq bullseye. If mine died tomorrow the only thing I would do different is upgrade to the upgraded bullseye they came out with a few months ago. They fixed all of the complaints I had about my bullseye. The new one is built more robust and has wifi controls. As far as cooking, bri...

I agree with you 100% on the hive beetles, especially the full sun part. It felt like they multiplied when ai put the hives in full sun. What I have found that keeps them at a tolerable level is raking back the ground around the hives and applying First Saturday Lime in about a two foot radius. It i...

They have several types of treatments for them. None can be used when you have honey boxes on. There are a couple that say it is safe, but I wouldn’t chance it. Oxalic acid vaporizer is very effective, but like most things in beekeeping, it can be expensive and time consuming. Especially if you have...

Beekeeping is a really fun hobby. They really are fascinating little creatures. I would highly recommend starting with 4 hives. If something goes wrong with one hive you can pull frames from other hives to get it back on track. It is pretty expensive hobby to get into and can be very frustrating if ...
Mosquitoes from that list, but chiggers would be my vote. They are God awful. ...

I have the DJI Mini SE and that is in the price range you are looking for. Everyone that has seen its capabilities has been really impressed. It is quick to deploy is incredibly stable even in wind. Fastest I have gotten it up to in sport mode is 30mph and the furthest I have flown it without losing...
