Don't poison my bees, urges beekeeper

A beekeeper is appealing to people not to poison colonies - after losing a large number of their bees to poisoners.

Will Radcliffe of Honey Mann took to Facebook to urge people not to poison colonies to get rid of bees.

He says he's recently lost half his colonies in West Baldwin after someone laid out poison, which can have a cascading effect as bees from other colonies can transfer the poison to their hives up to two miles away.

Will's urging people to consider the broader consequences of their actions.
