I don't think so.  A local pest control company charged a local woman $300 
to puff a little Sevin into a bee colony.  Ten minutes work and he left. A 
few weeks later the honey had absorbed water and fermented, bursting the 
cells and running down the walls. As I recall, she had $1100 to $1200 in 
drywall repairs.

I think he ripped her off. Don't you?
