Killer Bees Found In Louisiana

Killer bees has been discovered in Louisiana. This is the first time the aggressive Africanized bees have been discovered in the state outside of ships in New Orleans. Local6 News says local emergency services have put together a plan to deal with bee attacks and removal.
Local emergency crews have put together a policy to help with the arrival of the bees. They will only handle situations that involve multiple bee stings, not just the presence of the bees.

Many local beekeepers said they began preparing for the arrival of the killer bees years ago.

"So if we find a very aggressive colony, we're going to kill out that colony and replace it with a European queen," beekeeper Billy Hummer said.

The bees were found in a trap last week.
