My day has been unlike many I have ever had in my life. I went to bed last night after covering a ground bee hole with dirt surrounded by large stones. When I woke up, a stone was overturned (bees did not do it, nor my kids and I doubt my cat did) no logical explanation. I got to work and things have just been crazy since. It just feels really off and all I can think of is the scary large Full Moon back on Wednesday and CERN. Anyone else having a rather odd day?

Yellow jackets can be dangerous. A child that has never had a bee sting can die from stepping on a yellow jacket ground nest.
Thanks for saying that. I didn’t know that, but I know that they pack a punch.
The biggest problem is that the high level of venom can create an anaphylactic response that you won't know about until a second bee sting.
Thanks for sharing that I appreciate it. Sometimes people think that a toddler can decide not to step on a yellow jacket nest.
I disagree. Children run around enjoying themselves, chasing one another, and digging in the dirt. I think a small child could really be at risk if somebody didn’t deal with an issue such as this.
Great Job OP - for protecting your children!
