With stucco you probably have termites too.

Do you need a recommendation? (if you are in the Baton Rouge area).

A friend of mine had a similar issue, found some guy on LSU's website. The guy came out and vacuumed them out.. And removed the honey combs they established, in his wall..

I'm pro bee. I can live with spending some cash to preserve the bee. I just need a number of somebody who can do this soon. I'm in the 70809.

My in laws bee guy that came out said if the honey bees all die, then humans will die due to no plant growth and oxygen


He seemed like a stoner though so who knows

If they just showed up, give them a few days, chances are they are swarming and will move on their own

This is all the bees. The guy sucked them all in with a vacuum. He said it was probably over 10k bees.

This is part of the comb that was taken out.

Same thing happened near my dads house a couple months ago. Hadn’t seen them since, but there were thousands of them.

They weren't there two hours ago. Now they are right outside the front door (that's a problem) and you can see they have entry points where they are crawling under a half inch gap where the bricks and the fascia meet. It actually looks like they are NOT behind the stucco but in that spot just below the roof line.

Fill a large sprayer used for weeds (the plastic kind with a hand pump and wand) with water and dawn dish soap, spray them from a couple feet away and they will fall instantly and die. Would have never thought it worked before a bee keeper told me to do that....he wouldn’t even come out to kill/harvest a swarm exactly like the OP

Call one of the bee experts. My in laws had this problem. Guy came out,found the queen,and took all the bees with him. Even let us keep some of the honey comb he removed. Better than killing them IMO.


This is the proper thing to do.


We called a guy that had relocated over 60 hives. Turns out we had Africanized bees. They kicked his arse. He had to poison them after sending samples in to somewhere. We lost lost of honey. They had started a new hive about 1/2 mile away. True sorry. That was 6 weeks ago.
