Two more removals (cutouts)
« on: March 24, 2008, 12:08:39 pm »
Hi everyone,  Thanks to this forum a lady in Arrow Rock was able to call me to remove a couple of hives.  Just waiting on the weather.  Have camera ready....LOL  One is in the soffet of a two story house....might be fun.  Her painter has a lift though so that will help.  Not sure if the other one is in the wall or between the floors.

Someone really ought to tell them that the world of Ayn Rand?s novel was not meant to be aspirational.

I did a fiver once (all on the same property).  My son and I worked all day Saturday, all night and all day Sunday to get them all.  Finally packed everything up about 10pm Sunday and left.

Great, two for you! Have done multiples, triplets, a few times, 4 once. Have that camera ready, yes, and have fun!

I don't mind doing the multiples this time of year since they are coming out of winter and have not built up too much (I did a triple a couple of weeks ago and it only took about 6 hrs).  When I did the fiver, it was in September, during a great fall flow and we'd had a really good spring flow as well so they were all huge, way too much work for one weekend.
