Je visite cette ruche presque toutes les semaines pendant la saison pour éviter l’essaimage des abeilles. L’apiculture urbaine connaît une mode importante et j’ai peur qu’un jour l’apiculture soit interdite à Paris. De plus en plus de gens installent des ruches et peu sont réelement apiculteurs. Pendant la saison, c’est problèmatique, personne ne souhaite avoir un essaim d’abeilles posé sur son balcon ou sur sa voiture au cœur de la capitale.
