Here is a one of our first removals of 2008

This colony had just moved into this apartment ceiling about
2 days before I took these pictures.

Removals are not always easy to get to. Here I had to climb
out onto the roof...waaaaaay up there!

We always try to gain access to the colony that is easiest for
us and for you. Here we pulled the upstairs carpet back to cut
through the floor. When finished we put the carpet back and
no additional repairs were needed.

Some removals are simpler than others. Here all we had to do
was remove one board from the house.

This colony arranged the honey comb like books on a book shelf.

After seeing the inside you'll understand why we went through
rock to get to these bees. Much easier to repair the outside.

2008 was the year to remove bees from churches. In all we
removed 6 colonies from 4 churches.

Not sure why but it also seemed that "church bees" were a
little more peppery than most.

2008 also seemed to be the year to remove bees from columns
We were able to get them all out and put the columns back!
