Good day, I am considering starting up beekeeping as a hobby and have everything to learn. Before I go and invest in the equipment needed, I felt I should check out what a friend told me which could affect my decision in going ahead or otherwise. He said that he had read that bees create a real mess to neighbouring cars and houses by leaving a sticky residue all over the place. Is it correct that bees can be messy and basically become a pest to yourself and your neighbours? Thank you. Craig
