Opportunity to remove bees from a tree 20 feet up.
Apparently these bees are a problem for the children playing near the tree.
The family does not want to remove the tree.
This may or may not be a paying job. It just depends on what you can negotiate.

I still am getting no swarm calls.

Very challenging. Very hard. Almost impossible.
Greensboro, 4 ft. off ground, 1 inch limb. One shake into box.
High Point, 2 ft. off ground. 1 inch limb. Just lift limb, set box, let limb down on top of box.
Randleman, they swarmed from one box, went 20 ft., entered another box.
Hard days work.....

Back on topic...
Is this to say, no one is interested in removing the bees from the tree?
Oh what a surprise!

I spoke with the lady today. She is going to keep her bees to pollinate her flowers.

Interesting since when they called me, they were trying to get rid of them, because the children were getting stung.
part of the conversation went:
Wife: well we dont want to kill them
Child in background: I want them killed, 1 stung me in the butt!
LOL

That was before I talked to her. A little PR and she is OK with them staying there.
