This is a useful little document that beekeepers can pass on to their neighbour to put them at ease when they are going to open up their hives.
Dear Neighbour,
I am delighted to tell you that I now have a colony of bees at our house and wanted to let you know what that means and reassure you of any concerns you may have.
This is an A4 pamphlet that you can download and pass on to your neighbours if they are not understanding all the reasons why you have bees and why you need to look at them every so often.
