We have a honey bee colony under our trailer outside Honey Grove. Anyone know someone we can call to remove them?

Got him fixed up today. Collected 75lbs of honey and transferred 15k bees to a better home.

Good job on the collection. Hopefully that honey will go to feeding other bees for the winter. Honey harvested after July will likely be tainted with snow-on-the-prairie which is mildly toxic to humans, mostly causing throat irritation and other esophageal discomfort. It doesn't bother the bees at all, however.
