I can't do removals here in Texas from any occupied dwellings 'cause
the law states you must have a Pest Control license, but I put my
contact info on the net this spring and have been inundated with calls
so far (5 calls a day, minimum). :shock: I investigate a lot of calls
just to be sure they are not easy swarms, so I see a great number
of established nests in walls and such.
As for what to do with the bees, I've hived one so far and made
arrangements to partner up with another local bekpr. I also intend
to join a local club and will give them away if I run out of room in
my yard. My problem right now is the lack of medium supers, SBB's
and inner covers to house them in. I will also look for folks who are
willing to donate property space for a couple of hives, with the rent
paid in honey
