Straight out of a Horror Movie Part 2-The Extraction

The Beekeeper up on the roof, he removed the roof tiles and cut a 3 foot hole to gain access to the hive.


Here he is pulling part of the hive out. You can see the hole they used to gain access looks to be the size of a tennis ball.


This is the hive The Beekeeper hauled away, he said it was a medium hive, about 25 lbs., and that it had been there awhile. The black is the dead bess, the bright yellow cubes are poison, the clearer light yellow on the bottom is the honeycomb and the bright yellow is where the nursery is. There was a whole army of new bees waiting to born.

It was $125 for the exterminator, $550 for the extraction, and now we have to have the big hole and all the woodpecker damage repaired too!
