"Killer" bees
Little known facts about "killer
bees":
The bee known as the "killer
bee" – the Africanized Honeybee – attacks in large numbers and they have been
known to chase intruders for over a quarter of a mile when disturbed.
Their venom is no more dangerous than regular honeybees, but because they
attack in greater numbers, your chance of having a severe allergic reaction
when they sting you is increased.
The "killer bee" lives in
South America, the western and southern USA.
Each bee can sting only once because
their barbs are hooked and when they fly off part of their abdomen is ripped
off including the stinger.
(Regular honeybees also can only
sting once and then they die, unlike bumblebees or carpenter bees, which have
smooth barbs).
The queens were originally brought
from Africa and Tanzania, but the Africanized honeybees have spread throughout
the world.
Because of their aggressive nature,
it's recommended that you call in a professional exterminator to get rid of
their nests.
