How to Escape from Killer Bees

On my Google home page, I have a lot of boxes set up for daily views. One of the boxes is a few How-To's. Today's How-To was to escape from Killer Bees.

http://www.wikihow.com/Escape-from-Killer-Bees

There are only 8 tips/steps on how to do this. I think we can add a few more.


9. Do not play in any MI events

10. If competing at an event with them, puff smoke around yourself for protection

any more?

Re: How to Escape from Killer Bees

11. Where Bright Green or a Shirt with flames on it. The Bees apeear to be afraid of chickens, fire, and all things HOT... allying yourself with these defensive measures provide best results for survival (defeating a Bee attack).


Love the article. It forgot though that in Michigan, Bee swarming attacks start in late Feb. to early March. By April they are usually at their most aggresive status.

12. Enlist the aid of a gorilla. The Killer Bees have trouble winning against gorillas, especially from Spanish-speaking countries.

13. If possible, hide on the other side of a tall tower. The Bees might get distracted and attempt to elevate themselves on this tower, where they can no longer score points.

Re: How to Escape from Killer Bees

14: Throw a soccer ball or 12 in their direction. They will immediately stop chasing you and start chasing the soccer ball, trying to score it. 12 should keep them busy for a couple of minutes.

@Chris: A gorilla won't do it. Look up the translation of "guerrilla"; you'll find that it's "little war"; a soldier would work much better.

Ooh, but you missed my subtle criticism of using wikis as a source of reliable information! Yeah, that's it. Totally. I meant to do that.

15. Hold any board up with writing on it. The swarm will crash into board hoping it will stick to them.

16. Run past a pole, as they will surely change course to go hang. WARNING: Even if you knock them down, they'll get right back up again...
