I robbed bees for the first time in my life yesterday. Dad isn't well enough to handle it on his own at the moment (4 hives was a bit much even so) and I went out with him to the property they are sitting on and did some of the heavy lifting. I didn't even get stung. They are remarkably calm compared to my memories of the kamikazi bees we had when I was a kid (which is why I never went robbing with him).
I'd do it again...and probably will have to, I think he needs to do some back up work on them in the next month.
