RE: [RC] Killer Bees - Rae CallawayHmm, I haven't heard of bees putting their nest in the ground. Maybe they were yellow jackets (one group of VERY pissed off wasps!) or hornets?

He was illergic and did not have an eppi pen with him. Peggy Subject: [RC] Killer Bees I just saw a program about killer bees and it seems that most of them are currently in the southern part of the U.S. I wondered if any of you ridecampers in that area had come across any of them in training rides, life, or rides? The program seemed to sensationalize the presence of them, but I thought that really being in danger was about as much as being actually bitten by a rattlesnake....
