Honey Bees And Horses

摘要

Honey bees and horses are a unique pairing. They can coexist under the correct circumstances. The colonies need to be placed such that when the bees fly, they fly away from any pastures and are close to a water source; closer than the horses' water trough. A sign indicating where the honey bees' hives are located should be installed so the humans who work with the horses know!The colonies should be located at least 20 to 30 feet away from pastures and at least that distance where people ride and board their horses. A hedge or fence can be placed in front of the colonies to force the bees to fly up above the horse's heads andrider head level. Hives should not be located in pastures where there are horses. The horses will knock the hives over, resulting in angry bees and possibly injured horses.
