Too bad they got hosed...most bee species are hurting and
without bees, a lot of "food" won't happen.

Can't tell the species from the pic, but probably just a wayward
queen and the hive followed. A beekeeper could have corraled
them in a few mins.

They didn't use the large truck hose...the guys didn't want to hurt them. They were trying to wipe them off at first, but that didn't work. They tried calling a beekeeper, but that was a no go. So, water was it...

Haha, this happened to my friends front door a month or so ago, no pics, but when we went to find out how the hell to deal with it i found this "Swarms mostly occur in the Spring, rarely in the early fall, and almost never in the late summer.
A honey bee swarm can be described as a compact ball of bees, as small as a grapefruit (uncommon), to the size of a football (most common), to as large as a basketball (also uncommon). No nest materials will be seen or found. If you see a nest, it is not a swarm. If they are honey bees (see next question) then this is an established hive. It can be removed but is more difficult.
Swarms also appear suddenly. You may even see them settle onto the branch or bush. If you see this exciting moment, then you definitely have a honey bee swarm."


whether or not its 'exciting' really has to do with the spectator/victim
