My cousins have bees in their water meter and they need them removed.  Any one want to help them?  Call my cell if so. 720-333-5869.
To bee or not to bee that is the question I wake up to answer that every morning...

Snap us some photos!  This might be interesting.  I assume your water meters are underground in TX? 

Can you shake a swarm UP?  Scoop them up by hand?  Catch the queen and wait for the rest to move into a hive box?  What's the process when they are below grade?

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Interesting video Scott, I missed that one before. 

It seems like a water meter hole might look attractive to bees in the south.  A nice sized entrance hole, about the volume of a nuc, a break from the heat, and a source of water to boot.  Probably a nice home until you get a torrential Florida downpour.....or a visit from the meter reader!
