This hive was in the cinder block wall of an Auto Zone. It's taken a couple of months to trap the bees out of the wall. It works like an animal trap in reverse. See the little red cones...the bees can come out, but can't go back in. That's why we nailed the nuke body to the wall and placed a queen in the box so the bees coming out would go into the hive with a new queen. John is putting a second story on so they have room to accomodate every one. They should be ready to come home by the beginning of August.
