Informative Research & Explanation

The research on killer bees has advanced a tiny bit more since this book was written. However, this is a great explanation of the Africanized Honey Bee. It dispells a lot of myths and explains a lot of truths since this was written by the person who actually did the field research. I would love to see more research and books written on this topic so that the public would get the correct information about these creatures and we could realize the beneficial traits these bees may offer.

Great Book Explaining the "Killer Bee" phenomenon

This book ranks as one of the best books I have read on the subject of Africanized Honey Bees. (aka Killer Bees) This book is easily understood by the layperson, yet full of great data for the serious student of this exotic pest. From Texas to California, we have to learn how to live with this creature - it is not going away! I strongly recommend this book. While I have been teaching classes on the subject of Africanized Honey Bees for the better part of a decade, I still keep this book handy as a reference, and recommend it to my students.
