False Alarms
« on: May 25, 2008, 04:10:19 pm »
Got a swarm call yesterday. Arrived to find two men standing on ladders doing a better job of shooting each other with insecticide than the bees. The swarm had landed on the side of a house and the bulk of them were already dead. I didn't say anything at all, I just drove off.

Could always take a rope and tie it to the ladders before you leave. That would've made a statement. :-D  :'(
