    I heard if you don't remove the Hive, they are bound to find a way back in?

    One of them wasps bit me and kept wanting to bite me. It got me once, then chased me.

    If you ever get stung, suck out the poison and stuff from the wasp, then rub with garlic. :cool: Use a sprayer that can shoot from a safe distance, in case you miss any of them. There's a 2-pack at Wal-Mart on sale right now.

    I'll post photos of my hive. They found refuge inside the coiled hose thingie.

    I really think you should call a professional. You probably have honey combs in your walls and they need to come out.

    Really? I'm always fascinated with the size that bee, wasp, and hornet nests/hives can get.

    It's pretty easy to tell by the pattern they are in by the mouth of the hive that those are African killer bees.

    Are you serious? If so, I would definitely call some professional assistance and forget anything about those sprays I or others have suggested.

    Yeah, Cheetah really knows his bees. I would totally believe him and then call a bunch of government agencies for help.

    if you can't tell what the honey badger is doing at the beginning he is taking the mouse out of the cobra's mouth so he can eat the mouse....then he kills the cobra. honey badger > chuck norris.

    We had a bee problem at my parents house. We would do the same thing with the spray and they just kept coming back. They were coming out of a small hole right above our back door.

    This went on for about a month and we finally called an exterminator.

    They had to tear down part of the wall to remove 30 pounds of bee hive from inside our wall.

    Needless to say, we were rather surprised.

    I would call a pro or else you're not going to be able to sleep due to the buzz of the bees inside of your walls. I don't know if that could really happen, but I would really get a pro to come to make sure all of them are gone. Bees seem like the could cause a lot more problems for you then the common wasp problem.

    Do NOT kill them with spray. You will end up with a horrible smell of thousands of dead bees trapped in the wall of your house.

    If you can see that many on the outside of your house, you have a huge hive in the wall of your house.

    Get a professional.

    What if he is wrong and it turns out to be like Al Capone's vault? Would it be less?

    This guy will do it for free.


    With honey bees disappearing, maybe you should ask some beekeepers from a phonebook on what they'd do to remove your troubles.

    Do you get to keep the honey?

    I remember I was getting a gold ring resized smaller. He quoted a price higher than I expected. I asked if I got to keep the extra gold he cut off. He said I could, but he'd have to charge me more.
