Thanks for answering my question about blueberry bushes so quickly. I got the answer the same day. Now I would like to ask you how to get rid of bees in the attic of my friend's house. They live in Riverside county,CA nearby me and I think I read somewhere that you can call someone like the county extension and they will remove the bees for you. Is there a charge for this service and how do you get their number? Thanks very much. Irma

You can contact your local cooperative extension office but rather than be interested in taking care of the problem, I suspect they will simply give you a list of recommended beekeepers who might be interested in moving the bees in your friend's attic. You might also check your local phone book or classified ads for beekeepers. If you call a pest control company, they will kill the bees and remove the nest. I'd vote for trying to find a beekeeper to remove the bees. Here's the cooperative extension office contacts:
