Like an old Alfred Hithcock movie.. - Beachboy - 05-11-2007
..my place on 9th Ave has been invaded by Honey Bees. It wouls appear they have taken over a Mud Sparrow's house on the side on my house. My wife calls me inside the house to see 20 or more flying around my Mac computer!? I thought there was a shortage of honey Bees? Anybody have an idea how I get rid of them? I really don't want to kill the little buggers.
Hey, does anybody know of any Beekeepers in Puna area, perhaps they could take my Bees away?

There are some signs around for a Bee Man...I know our Connie - Sittall has used him and he did a good job for her from what I remember...maybe she can give the details.

There is at least 1 beekeeper in HPP. I think his name is Don Tinker.
In 2004, the contact number (no name given) for the Big Island Beekeepers was 982-6431.

here it is 8:00 a.m. Sat. morning and the first Bee has entered my house!!! If Iknew where they were entering from I could plug it. Until then I have to worry about my 18 month old son, and my 8 year old too. As for myself I have no fear of Bees which stretches back to my childhood. I really don't want to kill them, but nor do I want to pay several hundred dollars to eradicate them either.

To, perhaps, adjust your impression, usually, bee removal people don't eradicate them but find the queen, move her and a bunch of cohorts into a container, wait for most of the rest to follow, then transport them elsewhere, probably to a hive. I watched from the other side of a window while a specialist did this at an office in Mtn View, CA. I learned a lot watching.
There might be a swarm in your walls (if it's double-wall construction), in the attic (if there is one), or under the eaves of the roof, perhaps? Smoke will slow them down, but I wouldn't do that without considering what you do next, what they'll do when there's no more smoke, and what the smoke will do to the interior of your home.

Since you have to fear of bees I have a solution. Collect the honey and sell it at the market and then you can pay for the beekeeper to remove them.
