Bee hive removal Hope Ranch area. Tip of the day - do not let a hive move into your home and do nothing for three years. At first it might seem pretty cool, just a few bees moving in and out of a wall or roof eave, but before long hives that are left alone can grow to an immense size.
This hive was removed from a rental property. It moved into a roof eave and grew very large. This wasn't an attic space, yet rather just the space between a vaulted ceiling and composite roof. Since there were so many bees in multiple spaces several openings had to be created to access all the comb and bees that had been left unchecked for 2-3 years. Jobs that include major cutting are done in conjunction with Dan Briner construction. He does the major cutting and handles the repair separately.
Approximately 20 bee combs filled the entire area of the largest cut-out. In the photo above, 4-5 layers of honey comb were attached to the ridge beam between the joists, which than led to brood comb and then more honey comb. The second box area was cut on the next work day, which revealed additional comb and a large number of bees.
