The question about ferral bees in bee trees. I haven't seen 1 in the timber in years. I have seen them in trees in people's yards. They are bees that have "swarmed" from someone's bee hive. Once in a tree or a wall they are very difficult to remove. Trees have to be cut and split, walls have to be torn apart. We probably recover close to a dozen swarms in the spring. If you get them after July 4th, it is tough to get them established and get them to produce enough honey to survive our winter's. Yes I've been stung, sometimes 20-50 times a day.

As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
