YI!
This is probably one of the most terrifying stories ever…Two Florida park employees were removing trash and were attacked by 100,000 killer bees!!!
PARK EMPLOYEES WERE CLEANING UP TRASH AND RAN INTO A 100,000 KILLER BEES
Two Tampa park employees were attacked by over 100,000 Africanized killer bees after they accidentally ran across their hive. They were removing trash from near the entrance to a park (Picnic Island Park) when they overturned an old tire and found the hive. They were swarmed by thousands of bees and were both stung over 100 times. The men were treated at the hospital with antibiotics and swelling reducers. An exterminator who came out to take care of the hive said they likely came across on a ship from Africa or South Africa and had been living here for years. More bees are probably living around the Tampa area.
Slacker is terrorfied of bugs and refuses to touch any type of bug, he agrees they are good for his garden but prefers to not interact with them.
