Things to ponder

Why dont bee farmers put their hives on side roads so less bees get destroyed when you drive by a canola fields? That is all

I love cleaning them off the windshield after every trip through the colonies. Farmers at bin sites and motorcyclists absolutely love them too, especially those that are allergic. talk about an infestation..

Met some good dudes working for them over the years but I can make a gift of jar of honey last years over the headache of cleaning them off the vehicles and stings. My whole right arm and hand looked like I could have played a character from the klumps from one of those lil cocksuckers. Had to run the ball Into the infield because I couldn't grip the softball.

I've been saying this since the 80s. We had a freight business and I went on a route with my brother peddling freight in a cabover tractor with no AC. I was stung several times that hot day. The bees would hit the wing window then bounce right on me and their stinger was out instantly. The amount of bees that one cabover we cleaned off was stunning.

I put a shot of Dawn dishsoap in with the washer fluid this time of the year. Makes a huge difference in getting the guts off.

Why do street sweepers only clean the main roads during peak traffic hours?

to mess with your road rage!

If you radiator gets full of bugs, use peroxide and spray them and let it soak and then they will wash out with a hose.
It works great on motorcycle windshields also.

Why do people who won dogs leave them in a 5×5 kennel all day everyday for? Especially since they bark at every person that walks by their house. When im out at break 3 times a day playing fetch with the brown boy, the dog just barks and howls when he hears some sort of sound. It should be some sort of crime, poor dog

bee hives by the side of the road are great when you are on a motorcycle! SHould be a mimimum 200 yard setback or something similar I think, but that wouldnt be very freedom would it?

More like 2 miles

I would assume they are close to roads it easy to access them.

Honey bees will travel two miles all day long for pollen , they need to coordinate the placement on the "right" side AKA the same side of the road where the canola or pollen source.

We never hit any a mile or 2 in either direction but when we went right by them....that's when he smacked them by the dozens
