Had a huge hive under my toolshed. My neighbor babysits and I didn't want the kids in the pool getting stung, as well as us being on vacation and trying to tan while dodging bees. I called a beekeeper, since an exterminator would just spray deadly chemicals, possibly kill my animals, and not take care of the problem.
Words of advice if you have bees removed: You will have honey EVERYWHERE. The beekeeper did his best to keep everything clean, but this hive was HUGE. You will probably have neighborhood bees hanging around for a couple of days trying to scavenge honey. You will probably have dead bee bodies everywhere too. Like I said, this guy was very clean, but even after a second visit I still had to go vacuum carcasses.
He said he would be back by on Sunday and he'll have a jar of honey for me. Great service and a 1 year guarantee. Now I gotta replace the floor in my toolshed...
