Removed this established colony from between a brick and a block wall. Bees were getting into the school and the district wanted me to get them out and any cost. I had a really hard time locating the bees and used my digital camera to help me find them. What I did was stick the camera into the wall (wrist strap on wrist) and snapped various shots to positively ID their location. I worked very well. I ended up breaking the brick wall apart to get to them.

JP...it took about 3 hours. Not too bad but my wrist were sore after swing the dead blow hammer to bust the brick up. I started to use a sledge but I didn't want to kill the bees. I didn't charge them too bad. It was actually lower then my average. This district has given me a few jobs so I want to keep them happy.
