>>Everyone agrees it does. It certainly can help to
remove established hives and swarms from residential
structures...
I might try it in a tree removal. Unless the hole is large enough to get an arm inside, it's not possible/easy to remove the combs without cutting the tree.
No need for Bee Quick in structure removals since structures can be disassembled.
I am interested in the substance as a deterrent though after a colony has been completely removed and the nest space filled with insulation. I want to deter another swarm from moving into an adjacent section of the wall. It's impossible for any remover to insulate an entire structure without a tremendous cost.
If Bee Quick can be used as a deterrent, how long will it last before the active ingredients evaporate or disintegrate? I'd like something that will last for at least a couple of seasons.
>>Yes, one can drive the queen out every so often...
Perfect in a tree application perhaps.
>>But the fantasy of driving the bees out of a cavity,
vacuuming them up off an exterior wall, and driving
off with a check in your pocket is a fantasy.
I did not notice anyone having such a fantasy... This sort of half-done job would be guaranteed liability and an invitation for law suits. Besides you would still leave a lot of bees behind! What owner would present you with a check when there are bees still flying?
