yup got 3 removal calls coming up, 1 is in a state park museum, another is about 15' up in the eve of a house and the last will be a inside removal (yup in the floor joist of the second floor) , I told the guy how to find the brood nest and he said it is 2 feet back from the wall, its a plywood floor and he just had to see where they are entering from outside and feel the floor for a hot spot, it took about 30 seconds for him to find it when I was talking to him on the phone. I will try to bring a camera this time :-P
Sound's like allot of work will you try to get them all in one day.
Good luck with these Ted, would love to know more about the museum.

no, I am going to do the one in the eve tomorrow and probably the one in the floor monday, they about 20 miles apart, besides that the only times the owners are going to be there to let me do them, the one at the state part I can't do till first of july, thats when they get budget money and can pay me, Removals are to much work for me to do for free but every now and then I when it is right I will do a mercy removal.
Yeah, I know what you mean about the mercy removals! :-D
I am interested in the museum! What kind of a museum is it?

well went today to the one that is suppose to be 15 feet off the ground, dont know where this guy learned how to measure but it is 50' and below is the edge of a creek, I told him it would cost a good bit for me to remove bee's and do repairs because the only way to do this is to cut to roof of the house open, I asked if he seen them in the attic and he said no so they are just in the eve, this one will be continued later,
ok I also went to the museum, its not what you think, it a copy of the Elijah Clark old home with some valuable antiques inside, heres the picture of it, the hive is in the wall behind the fire place http://gastateparks.org/net/content/image.aspx?imageid=73822&s=87.0.1.5
guest what the bee's are gone, empty hive!!!
now I have to call and see if the 3rd hive will be able to be moved this weekend, got to see owners schedule is!!!!
well thats a bummer for sure. Maybe the third one will be easy got, lets hope so.
