I mentioned your bee problem to the EM and his only suggestion was to look in your roof space and that they are most likely to be mortar or mining bees - they do get through the tiniest holes and are more active in sunny weather. <br /><br />I thought I was doing well to make three cards today for Sarn's Rudolph Day but you have beaten me hands down :) <br /><br />Love the photo of your pups and glad to hear that big pup is recovering. <br /><br />Hope your day has been a good one.

We had the not well bees in the house bit and discovered a hive had moved into a crack in the brick wall outside and somehow a few of them were getting into the inside of the house. I would suggest walking around the exterior of your house and look for hive activity. Sorry the pup was not well, do you think maybe she got stung and had a reaction? Sorry to hear that crafting is dangerous right now. It is no fun to be stung. I had a pesky fly at my desk one day and kept swatting at it. Finally I hit it and it fell onto my leg and stung me.... not a fly but a bee.

Maybe they're setting up a new home in your home. <br /><br />We have little black ants every Spring. It's apparent that I need to call the pest management folks in a little earlier than their normal mid-April. Weird weather brings weird insect behavior.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Susan #136Susan ~ Killam Creativehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07970774355458783494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4050114628537512248.post-73115703435097004882012-03-28T13:56:43.552+01:002012-03-28T13:56:43.552+01:00Loved having a browse at your work desk, it looks ...Loved having a browse at your work desk, it looks very interesting.

Provide a solution of honey/ sugar and water. We put a drop of honey in front of a large bee one and actually saw it feeding. It flew off when it was ready. Dead bumblebees may just be at the end of their lifespan - some only live for 2 weeks... they do their job then die but that's their lifecycle. If you go to the following website - you might get answers to your questions:<br /><br />http://www.bumblebee.org/helpbees.htm#fly<br /><br />Glad your dog is feeling better - bless.

I had to add the dowel rod and fancy fibers to it. It is WAY too small to be a baby blanket. Nope, I make ART, not anything USEFUL (grin).
