Bee's

[Jeff1]

After leaving the house empty for 2 months I discovered that I now have a fairly big honeycomb stuck onto a bedroom window , complete with about 500 little bee's . I said where is the bugspray . That seemed to start up a new beehive of trouble for me . Everyone said NO their good luck and we have to get a monk(s) Im not sure what will happen next but I am sure that the monk will cost me more than a can of spray . What will he do ? Make them go away or bless them ? Then I heard " lets get him here soon , he can give us some good lottery numbers " . Sometimes I wonder .

Apparently, this superstition is not unique to Thailand.

Many European cultures also believe that bees are lucky.

The best thing to do is to contact a honey maker. It may sound daft but I had the same thing happen to me albeit on a smaller scale.

They sent a guy around in all the clobber, he took the lot with him and he would have left the honey but I had no money........

I had a huge one outside my laboratory window.

When they painted the outside walls though the smell of the paint made them leave - so paint your house.

Bee soup?

If you don't want to kill them, fire off a VERY light mist of mosquito-specific insecticide from upwind. It will not kill them and if you do it a couple of times they will pack up and find a friendlier and more comfortable place to nest.

I have also used a co2 extinguisher - freezing does not kill bees but they will go into a hibernation-like state and you can safely collect them, put them in a container that you can uncover with a long string and release them elsewhere. This works for unwanted snakes in your yard too.

Does is work for unwanted human visitors?

If so how big a canister of CO2 would you recommend?

[BambinA]

in TH , when they wanna chase bee.. they smoke it via burn something like coconut skin

[Jeff1]

I wouldn't mind killing them at all but the locals ( whose house the bee's are not dwelling in ) have a big problem with it . As of today , the nest is still about the same size and nobody called the monk .

On another note , I have always said " no honey , no money '

well I don´t understand why you wouldn´t mind to kill them at all, because they have done nothing to you...

anyway my answer is this...different species of bee behave differently...

if I were you i will try to find out what specie you have and see what is the best way to remove them with out any harm ( maybe you find out that the specie is harmless)...as someonelse suggested try to talk to a beekeeper or honey maker...

I have a couple of nests around my house: one in the bedroom above the lower ceiling, one in the back of the house and three in the side-wall. Regularly, they come in the house but never have been a trouble. they always looking for their way out. about 1.5 year ago, my wife was so stupid as to step on one crawling around in the bedroom floor. That was in de early evening. In the nite a little brother came in and stung my wife. After that, she always uses a piece of paper and let them out the window :-)

Large enough so that it leaves a serious dent when you bash them in the head with it.

I would say: just ignore'm.

Last month a neighbour from me got stung 15 times in the head; he had to go to the hospital because his head was swelling dramaticly .

He only tryed to smoke them out...
