Prior to his theft, the beekeeper prepares to subdue the bees.
On to a board he sprinkles drops of a smelly substance called Bee-Go.
Beekeepers are not renowned for their poetic nature.
The Bee-Go board is set to the side.
The beekeeper prepares to remove the hive’s lid.
Fly away, bees! Fly away!
Bright sunlight and cool air blast into the normally warm and dark honey storage chamber of the hive.
Bees maintain their hives at a constant 90 degrees F.
The alarm is signalled: Intruder alert! Intruder alert!
But before the bees can defend their honey stores by attacking the enemy, the Bee-Go board is down and a blanket tossed on top to send the foul smelling pheromone deep into the hive.
The bees are not happy. The stink has forced them from their home. Those that are not stunned by the Bee-Go whirr about in confusion. Their home has been invaded.
The box, called a super, is slowly pried off. The colony, doped and confused, is helpless to defend its stores.
The theft complete, the beekeeper absconds with his golden treasure.
Tomorrow: How the beekeeper sleeps at night
