John - you mention you need to get rid of some AHB in a hive, but
don't want to lose the combs.

I would do the following: - go to the hive at night, tape up all
little cracks etc including the entrance. Then drill a hole into the
box large enough to put a hose into. Connect the hose to your car
exhaust and then just leave your car running for an hour.


I'm wondering:
Why go to all the trouble with the car and hose.  If you set the hive in a
plastic garbage bag and tie it shut, or plugged all the openings, wouldn't
the hive generate enough heat to smother itself?
