IPM Facilities were given the opportunity for the 2nd year in a row to provide a demonstration on Bees at the Arlington Business Park, Theale. We currently have 4 hives onsite which are managed by our onsite Bee Keeper and site supervisor Ian Millward. Ian and John Belcher a local Bee specialist kindly gave a talk on the importance of Bees to our environment to the tenants of the business park and how to start their own bee hives at home.
Following on from the talk the tenants were given the opportunity to wear a bee suit and get up close and personal with the bees to see the interior of the hives and to see the bees jobs and processes within the Hive. The Event was a huge success and we look forward to carrying on the event in future years.
