has anyone out there had any experience removing bees from a garage wall
where the wall is open inside and out?
 
i plan on removing as much of the comb as i can reach, putting it into
a hive body inside the garage a few inches from the exit / entrance hole
and hope the bees will then migrate to the box.  right now they're in
a dead space in the wall and spilling out onto the ceiling of the garage
where they're annoying the owner.
 
there's no way i can trap all the bees since they're open to flying both
in and out of the garage.  so the hive with their comb installed as a
bait box seems the way to go.
 
any comments?
 
thanks,
