While inspecting the exterior of a home I noticed honeybees flying in and out of a tiny hole. A closer inspection with a thermal camera showed a massive hive. Most pest control companies will just spray or dust the cavity. A few things are certain to happen. 1) the honey will stain, 2) robbers like ants and flies will move in, and 3) another swarm will eventually find it. At Tayco Pest Control LLC we prefer to cut it out, relocate the bees and comb, seal the wood around the area and finally seal the exterior. The bees are then taken to a local apiary. Depending on building structure unfortunately this is not always feasible. This time we were able to save the bees.
