Luckily, these bees have only been in this home for about 2 months. The homeowner was trying to do yard work – and was getting tagged occasionally by bees – so his wife made sure that he called a beekeeper to do a live removal (as opposed to having them exterminated). They were entering […] 
Bees have lived in this soffit for a short amount of time. The property was being sold, and the new buyers wanted the bees to be removed as a part of their purchase agreement. While the bees were in a 1st floor soffit – it was a high soffit… and a precarious drop below […] 
The tenant in this condo has seen bee activity since he moved in last November. Given the number of holes in the side of the building – I am not surprised at all. He had a sticky spot on the upstairs wall of his home – which alerted him to the possibility of honeybees in […] 
This colony set up shop in the ceiling void space of a gazebo. That portion of the roof line is shaded – so does not get hot enough for there to be a problem with the wax melting. These bees have a very fertile queen with a great egg-laying pattern! […] 
These bees were occupying space in 2 irrigation control valve boxes. Lawn maintenance crews would not go near the boxes with bees, so I was called in to perform the honeybee removals. Each hive was very small, and had queens that looked to be well mated (from the eggs and larvae pattern in the […] These bees moved in to a “yard art” straw skep about a year ago. The top 2/3 of the skep was capped honey, and the bottom 1/3 was brood comb. The queen was found after all the comb had been removed and was placed in the commercial Langstroth hive. The homeowner wanted to keep the […] This swarm arrived on a back porch around 1pm today. By 6pm when I got the call – there was a sizeable cluster on the outside of the trash can – as well as some on the inside. Scooped them into a nuc, and found the queen after a few minutes. It took a few […] This last 2 weeks (March 30-April 9 2013) have been “swarm week”. I’ve received no less than 20 calls per day for swarm pickups in people yards, trees, houses, squirrel habitats, school yards, and more… I even caught a swarm that was just innocently crossing the road while I was between calls! Removal – Monday […] 11×11 Storage Building – Xmas Eve! I’ll close out the year with a final storage building build in Arlington, Texas. The build will be documented here. The first pic is of most of the materials loaded up and ready to take to the home office. As much as I hate handling all this […] |
