bees flying around the apartment, we had sheet-rock dust covering 
everything, we had globs of honey and wax comb on the floor, and even though 
we lined the floor with newspaper, we had crumpled globs of newspaper 
sticking to our shoes. And to top it off, I had the "help" of the apartment 
owner.

Not sure I should elaborate here but I will. Some preparation is in order 
here.

1. A tarp for floor cover and a good vac.

2. Liquid smoke is much more tolerable. Or a lemon scented very light syrup 
spray.

3. Once the colony is exposed and you don't want to vac up the bees. just 
open a window, hang a tarp over the exposed nest and return after dark with 
one of those red flood lights and finish the job.
