|Subj: Re: Honeybees in house
------------------------------------------------------------------
A neighbor of mine in Maryland asked me for assistance in removing a
colony of honeybees from her the walls of her house (since I keep a few
hives down the road she thought I might be able to help). They enter
through a hole in the outer wall at the second story level and have set
up shop in the wall. Evidently a swarm moved in about 6 weeks ago.
What are the options other than chemicals, and if chemicals must be
used, what are the preferred ones and how should they be applied.
Thanks.
