Full Beehive Inside a Water Meter Box — Studio City, CA

Studio City, CAFilmed April 12, 2026

What happened on this job

Bees were going in and out of a water meter box nonstop, which usually means a full hive inside. Eli opened it, removed the colony alive and cleaned out the comb.

Like every job, this was a live removal with no chemicals: the bees and all the comb came out, the colony went to a beekeeper, and the entry point was sealed so bees don't move back in.
