BUMBLE BEES

Since Monday, an entire week, I have not opened my front door. I don’t dare, as I can see through the door’s window that bumblebees are flying around between the screen door and the front door. If I open the door, they will fly right into my house. It all started when I contacted a pest control company to spray my house as I do every spring. Unfortunately this year, the spraying somehow stirred up a nest by my front door and the bees are tormenting me.

I would have taken care of the problem immediately, but I live in a 4-unit condominium. Any work done on the outside of the building must be approved by all the owners -- which takes time. Before hiring anyone, I had to obtain a few estimates then email the owners and wait for them to make a decision and give their approval.

On Tuesday morning, the Kwik Kill Company will get rid of all the bees and hornets around my building. But until then, I still don’t dare open my front door. And so, the Sunday newspaper that I can see on my front porch will remain outside until Tuesday afternoon when all the bees will be gone.
