Fortunately there is a pair of glass door/cover things that's been keeping most of the bees from getting into the house, but some of them slipped through the small opening between the doors, so my mom tapped the gap shut for now lol

Not gonna lie this would be pretty funny.
Unfortunately the fireplace hasn't been used in years and I'm not sure the wood in there will even burn well lol

This might work tbh, but we're probably just going to call an exterminator or something

move out immediately and call an air strike on your house

Planr · January 15, 2018, 01:47:08 PM

climb up on the roof and pour dead-bug-juice down the chimney

Will use dead-bug-juice bombs from air strike for maximum thoroughness

Please don't bomb the bees. Just call a local beekeeper and they will come and remove them for free and/or very cheap (given that they're in your chimney). Colony collapse disorder is gonna forget our stuff up bad thirty years from now, and you can help prevent it by getting them removed in a non-lethal way.

Update:

We covered the glass up to make it dark in the chimney, and the bees have seemed to left, but I doubt this is the end of this.

Yeah I think that's what we'll do if the bees don't just leave on their own.
Nuking them with chemicals doesn't seem like the smartest idea tbh, and they are acting pretty chill right now anyway, so the situation isn't urgent or anything.

the smoke will just confuse the bees, not scare them away

Red Spy · January 15, 2018, 02:24:23 PM

gas and fireworks should do the trick
