A friend told me that he stirs the mound and then sprays with pesticide. He does it several times and then spreads poison granules. His theory is that by reducing most of the workers, they are suckers for the poison and feed it to the queen. However, my bee keeping experience tells me that they can raise a new queen in a hurry.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
