You Never Can Tell With Bees

So evidently even exterminators think honeybees are beneficial. They are testing one of them to make sure they are honeybees (visions of tiny paternity tests and maybe a little buzzing Judge Judy), and if so, they will vacuum them up and take them somewhere more appropriate to colonizing. Good news! Both for the bees and my chemical load...

Course this whole saga brings me right back to that preference thread. What if the infestation had been flies? Or something else less well-considered? Even mosquitoes have an important role in the ecosystem. They are actually even more prolific pollenators then bees. Can't imagine I'd bee feeling so poetic about mosquitoes, though. Anybody here have mosquito as your totem animal?
