We had them in are yard one day. I was seting off fireworks and one went on the groud and did not go off so I ran over there and right by it there was the hole with them flying out. So me being 15 at the time I had to put a firework in the hole and light it. After I did that I went inside the house and got some raid and put in the hole to make shure thay was not comeing out. When I did that I started to did the hole up ever min I was puting raid in the hole. After about 30 mins I got them all but the hole went down at lest a foot and about 2 feet long. All the comb had larva in it but after all that I coverd the hole all back up. I even did not get stung!!!!.

Sence then we have not had them but I know thay are not honey bees. Honey bees dont have a hive in the ground the only way I know this im fixing to start beekeeping and im helping a state beekeeper.
