swarm-list Mailing List: Re: Bees in the house - asking help - the home residents I mean - Oakland

If bees entered the house most likely its an extraction which will cost them.  Rarely does any swarm have scouts that make it into house unless its via the chimney.   They probably never noticed bees until springtime when hive activity increased.

This does not look like a swarm. One day of activity of bees entering an opening or vent area and going into the bathroom. This is posted as either a volunteer or pro activity.

Perhaps they just need to screen out scouts, hard to judge from the video that they sent
