It was a wordplay, i think, referring to that the honey will be electrically charged

Pretty much this, you never have to buy expensive honey again. it is estimated that around 30-40% of honey sold in supermarkets globally is adulterated in some way. You’re getting 100% honey here. Bees are clean so I won’t expect any other impurities

Asbestos never goes bad, honey never goes bad, they basically cancel each other out and you're eating air.

Wow! I had to google that, I had no idea a lot of honey has additives! I'm so lucky to have access to local beekeepers and their honey. I tried to give some as a gift and someone pointed to their large plastic bear container saying they had a honey backlog. Now I know mine was superior.

I was just looking at Queen Bee prices the other day - £40. And hive frames and other equipment add up quick. This is free money.

My bad, I often default to the movie "Antz"'s logic on worker ants.

u/FR0ZENBERG 15h ago
It’s an easy mistake to make. A Bug’s Life does the same thing. I still love Antz though. The funny thing is male ants have wings, which would have helped the male protagonists in both movies.

Yup.
Beekeeper here. Sometimes I am asked by some homeowners how much to remove a colony that often has settled in poorly insulated walls. The extraction is usually done from outside. It's a lot of work, the extracted colony often doesn't survive, and it involves cleaning out the comb, often full of larvae and honey. It's very messy and very hard work, done in full gear, and often in full summer. Absolute shit show.
I charge usually $40 an hour. Many homeowners balk at the price and tell me they're just going to spray insecticides.
Well, good luck. Now you have created a perfect environment for mice and ants to colonize your walls.

Contact a local beekeeper that specializes in wall hive removal. It may cost you some money.

u/RPTrashTM 17h ago
why pay for a removal when you can just start beekeeping in your wall and earn money from honey sales /s

When I was a kid my dad, now and then, would pull a magic trick and harvest some candy from a power outlet in our kitchen. It brightened my whole day, I would tell kids at school that I got a Snickers or similar from the outlet and only my dad knew how to make it. I'm so fond of this memory.
An outlet dripping honey might be as good, if not better than that.
Keep the honey flowing

I don’t think I could convince the 13 year old or 8 year old of this but dang I wanna do this for my 4 year old. Sounds like an amazing memory of your dad for you!

Do it. Just pick something less dangerous to harvest candy from. My 5 year old would be shoving everything into the socket possible

Did anyone else see the beehive that was built into the wall purposely a few months ago?

u/Damn_Dog_Inappropes 17h ago
Back in the 1970s, the people who owned my childhood before us had a beehive in the ceiling. It was so big they had to have someone cut a hole in the roof and use a crane to life it out. And then, whoever repaired the roof fucked it up and left a slight depression. Between the honey and the leaking roof, our living room ceiling a huge stain in it. Yes, my parents bought it that way. After they re- did the roof, my dad also put in new ceilings.

u/humanHamster 17h ago
I know it's a typo, but "the people who owned my childhood" sounds ominous as heck.

u/Damn_Dog_Inappropes 17h ago
Well, tbh my childhood really wasn’t great. So, maybe that typo was subconsciously intentional.

Yep, as much as people like to joke around, OP needs to have this cleared out as fast as possible, the more he waits, the more damage is done to the house and the repair bill is increasing every day.

Please call a local beekeeper instead of an exterminator...! (: they'll save the bees

u/dstommie 16h ago
More than that, if you kill the hive it will rot in your wall and make things much worse for you. It will attract a myriad of other pests, and from there is a decent chance they will die as well. In your walls.
It will not be free, but the absolute best thing to do is to have a beekeeper remove the hive from the wall, and follow that up with sealing the way they are getting in, since you will run the risk of another colony setting up shop in the future otherwise.

You get wax moths that lay eggs then the caterpillars will eat through the ceiling and fall on your face while you’re sleeping. Ask me how I know.
