  1. Call a beekeeper, many will gladly remove them for you. They must get the queen or the hive will rebuild again. If it does, call the beekeeper again, sometimes it takes a few tries.


  2. Call an exterminator or the local county cooperative extension.

  3. mix one kilos salt in three litres water, and pour it into the nest...the bee will be go and never come back...

    good luck! (please be safety in pouring the water)

  4. If they are honey bees their nests are protected by law. We get a colony every year in our chimney. They don't bother us and when it comes time to swarm off they go.

    The council will not remove them because of the law but you can get a beekeeper to bring a hive and try to encourage them to move from the wall into it.

  5. A Beekeeper will take them away willingly.

  6. My boyfriend's parents had that, they had to get someone in to practically knock the whole wall down and rebuild it

  7. So thats where they all went!  Yep the old exterminators are your best bet i reckon.

  8. if they are actually inside the wall cavity then it is unlikely they are honey bees-they are probably masonry bees and for this you will need the intervention of a specialist who will inject an insecticide into the wall (such as permethrin or bendiocarb).

    if they are honey bees then although as other posters have rightly said these are protected by law and require the services of a bee-keeper if the swarm is presenting a health and safety issue we (rentokil) can remove it.

  9. Look in the phone book or on line for a local bee keeper (apiarist)..... he will come and get them......

  10. Call rentokil or a local exterminator.

  11. A Bee Keeper is the way to go, you can't exterminate them anymore, they're protected at the moment.
