How can I not work with the adansonii which is the local bee

simply by using a softer race, the ligustica for example.

I think it is easier and safer to work with the local race.

If you use ligustica, you could do the same errors than in Brasil with the killer bees (hybrids between andsoni and ligustica and iberiensis).
So I think it's better to avoid

it's true,
but keep bees African seems to me dangerous.
Your choice is difficult

Non, désolé.
Elle n'est pas encore présente dans le Parc Régional du Gâtinais Français, et c'est très bien comme ça ! <IMG SRC=" smileys.sur-la-toile.com/repository/Confus/oops-panneau-confus.gif ">
