Park Ranger in Wabash State Park in Bluffton, IN called and a storm 
toppled a large oak tree with an intact hive.  Said the hive has been 
active for at least 3-4 years.  It is near a rental unit and must be dealt 
with so leaving alone is not an option.

First is there anyone on list near that area that is interested in trying 
to save this feral hive?

Second, what are the chances of saving it?  How much work is involved?  
Something a hobbyist could / should tackle?

Third, if it comes down to exterminating the hive, what is the best 
recommended procedure?

Glenn
