Damn that would suck. Only thing worse is 10,000 killer bees or yellow jackets.

I would rather have 10,000 bees than 10,000 Formosan termites.

It's late but it's time for FPunr's to wax eloquent here. I can't hive the fact though that this could develop into a sticky thread.

10,000 honeybees is a small colony. At peak season, a colony can go larger than 75,000 or more. Besides, this was in the walls (a common occurance) and weren't really a big deal. Honeybees in the house will go to the nearest strong light or a window since their vision is polarized for navigational reasons. They're just fuzzy babies and wouldn't hurt this lady at all.

So, how would Ruth Buzzi feel about this sticky situation? Talk about needing to comb things out.

No pun intended, I'm sure. 8^]

Byers called on Joe Powell, a Rocky Mount man who extracts unwanted bee colonies from the walls of homes... As opposed to those bee colonies we want inside of the walls of our houses.

Would you like the job of counting 10 thousand bees?

Dan, a few years ago ( beyond my ability to get it easily on the web ) we had an abandoned house that was largely filled with a yellow jacket nest.
I mean, rooms full of a giant nest.
I can't recall the estimate of how many of the little devils ( they are relatives of hornets, and just as nasty ) were inside the building, but is was astronomical.
I used to drive by the place almost every day.

"When overpopulation crowds a faction of bees out of a colony, they often take up refuge in an unprotected patch of wall or roof." Bees were never homeless before Bush became President. It's high time bees are given access to rent control and a living wage.
