I was called last year to 'see to' a colony in a chimney. The operation was
a complete success in that I persuaded the owners that the bees were doing
no harm and posed no threat to them, their neighbours or their property.
Furthermore their extensive garden was full of fruit trees that needed pollinators.
They accepted my advice and wanted to pay me for my time and trouble, but as
I had enjoyed my visit and could do some shopping while I was in the area I
declined, but suggested a donation to Bees for Development. I don't know
whether or not they made one.
