WATERLOO, Iowa Sept. 13, 2004 - Firefighters had to be called after a plan
to evict a swarm of bees went up in smoke. Residents used gasoline to start
a fire in hopes of smoking out a hive of bees from under their home Thursday
when the house caught on fire, Battalion Chief Virgil Powell said.

"It wasn't a very good plan," Powell said.
Only minor damage was reported and no one was injured.
Firefighters removed the hive by flushing it out with water, Powell said.
