Hi,

We have a hollow tree stump on the front porch that has become a home to bees. I'm allergic and looking for someone to relocate it. They go in and out through a small hole in the top.

First thing to do is to make sure they're actually honeybees.

Can you get someone who's not allergic to take a picture which shows
some bees going in and out so they can be identified?

And then give the general location?

Turns out they are wasps or hornets- not bees. Nathalie at BeeMindful was kind enough to help identify.

Apologies for the false alarm.

Thanks,
Tara
