Take care of our bees please. We were spraying some stuff that was shown to be harmful later on. Just didn't show up in the earlier research. Gotta get the populations back up to where they need to be. A lot of us have opened up our farms to any keeper that wants a spot. We make sure nothing harmful is sprayed for miles around. Everyone is helping out in the area

Learning a lot about bees online and from beekeepers.
Poisons will kill the bees. Got to remove every trace of the hive afterwards. Other bees could find the hive and carry poisoned honey back to their hive, which could kill it. All material removed would have to be burned or washed and poisoned so other pest won't damage the building.
What do bees do during the winter? If safe, could wait till then.

Checking online for a suit, gloves, smoker and scrapper I can get them for about $100 and about 30 days shipping. Looking online with about 5 days shipping they will cost $200 to $300. My son will have them for further bee removal. He has all of the scrap wood from his new to be house, building some hives won't be a problem.

My son and family went to the farm yesterday to see how the new house was coming. My grandson was on the tractor cutting grass. The 2 granddaughters were playing on the swing set close to the barn. Ava is 6, she had a bee get in her face and she went to running. It tagged her on the butt. My son said get rid of them now.
I placed an ad on craigslist last night, 5 minutes later I got an email reply. 2 young guys were there at 11:30 am. I had about half of the ceiling down when they arrived. I would get a panel down, look around and bees were everywhere. I would step out so they would calm down. That was about 10 am to 11:30 for 6 panels.
They needed electricity. We had 1 8 ft 115v 15 amp to 30 amp adapter. 4 30 amp camper cords, 100 ft. 1 30 amp to 115 v adapter. 1 250 ft 12-2 romax. 1 75 ft 10 gauge cord, 1 75 ft 12 gauge cord, 1 100 ft 12 cord and their 1 100 ft 14 gauge cord. Ended up with about 4 ft of cord to move around as needed for their home made vacuum.
Their home made vacuum had replacement traps to hold the bees. Looks like both were full to me. They collected about 2 5 gallon buckets of comb, but had it in 4 buckets.
