[QUOTE="Lothlorien, post: 256752, member: 1024"] Yikes! Make sure you cover up where they came in, so that doesn't happen again next year. Can you call a beekeeper to lure them out? With all the loss of bees, it'd be a shame to kill them. When I was a kid, we had a nest get into the area between the floor and the ceiling of our two bathrooms (one bath was over the other). For months I kept telling my dad there was a nest somewhere. All winter long, I'd kill slow ones between the shade and the window. There were bees getting into the light fixture downstairs. Then the dog got stung a few times. One warm Spring afternoon, my neighbor called to tell us there were bees swarming in the back of our house. My Dad sprayed and killed them. About a year later, he gutted the upstairs bathroom to remodel. In the floor joists was this huge nest that was the size of a king-sized pillow! All the while, I was seriously allergic to bees, though I didn't know it a few years later when I got stung. My bedroom was right next to that bathroom! Gives me shivers to think about it. [/QUOTE]
