Compost Bin Full of Bees, Los Angeles, CA
What happened on this job
Bees had taken over an old compost bin and had clearly been there a long time, judging by the propolis buildup and the weight of the lid. Eli removed and relocated the colony.
Like every job, this was a live removal with no pesticides: 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.
