Bears...anyone know a way to keep them away from hives? I had to sell my bees because a bear was knocking over the hives and eating the baby bees...they love this more than honey. I've heard that an electric fence will work, but it seems awkward. An upper balcony might work, but bears climb trees...any ideas? My yard has many plants that bees love...in the winter they visit the rosemary which always seems to have blossoms.
