Bee Keeping

[mechanic]

My brother worked for Ergon for 35 years and he says they would often remove old power poles that had hives in them, nearly always near ground level.
So that's one more option to get a hive.
They do have a downside as their wax is extremely difficult to remove off a surface, my pool runs off 3 external power points and when the pump wouldn't run it was discovered that they had built their hive in the 3 connected points.
We couldn't find a solvent to clean them up so new ones were the only way out.
I've just counted 8 entrances into our walls and one aluminium sliding window assembly is welded in place.
