Updated to add: I talked to the builder this afternoon and he will be out Thursday to fix the holes! Yipee!!!!!!!!!!!!
My flight came in from Boston tonight at 735 pm. Keith (a friend of ours) called me in the car from my own house while I was driving home from the airport, so I knew something was going on. He asked me where I was and said that he and John had a big surprise for me when I got home. I suspected that I knew what it was. We have had a huge bee problem lately. I mean HUGE! Last time that I talked to John was at the airport and when he updated me on the current bee situation, I told him that we had reached the point where we needed to cut a hole in the wall and get the nest out once and for all. Of course John disagreed and argued with me about how to deal with it (understandable because who wants to cut a hole in the wall of a brand new house), but finally said that he thought that we were at that point too. Needless to say he decided to cut 3 HUGE holes in the laundry room ceiling to gain access to the nest and ended up calling Keith in as a reinforcement! The actual nest was apparently about 12 inches wide and 14 inches long and was LOADED with live bees. Thousands of bees! Neither of them got stung and they removed the nest, so I am happy about that. Now I just have to figure out how to get our builder to come and fix the ceiling and convince him that it is his responsibility since the bees gained access in the first place through a vent that was not properly attached to the house. At least I don't have to worry about being bored now that I am back from my mini vacation!
