Yea... so in the last week I have found 6 bees, some dead some alive, hanging out around my peppers in the basement! Haha. I have no idea how the hell they're getting in. The majority of our basement walls and rim joists are spray foamed shut. It really hasn't been all that warm here in Ohio recently. In fact we just had snow within the last week. It's kind of blowing my mind that the first place I actually see bees this year is in my basement and not outside lol. This is the first year that we've grown peppers from seed indoors so I guess mother nature is complimenting all my hard work by paying my ladies a visit.

Regardless, I'll have to find and plug whatever hole they're using for an entrance and make a trap for the existing ones that have made it in already. Not hating on pollinators or anything, my wife is allergic to bees and possibly my daughter. She hasn't been tested yet to confirm. Can't put the family at risk for some overachievers. They can wait a few more weeks for the plants to go outside.
