I guess it's better than having bats in the belfry (sorry).
I haven't seen it, but when one of my neighbors today found that I was keeping bees. He told me about his neighbor, who has had bees in his eaves for at least five years and hasn't done anything about it. From what was described to me, there is a gap between his chimney and his eaves that the bees have exploited and they actually swarmed last year.
Is there any good guidance where you all can direct me to perhaps handle this situation? I would love to take care of my neighbor's problem and get another productive hive going, but it doesn't seem to me like it would be as easy as capturing a swarm. Thanks very much.
