Well the remains of.

Spotted activity round the BBQ on Saturday and we couldn't get any pest control until Monday - so we took matters into our own hands.

Look what was lurking under the BBQ cover!

In the UK bees are protected so pest control won't kill them.

If it's wasps it's a different matter.

Bees? Wasps etc yes but I thought bees were generally owned by someone. I would never kill a bee. Happily murder wasps, spiders cockies etc though

No bees too. Bees swarm and wasps don't apparently.

Bee farmers won't remove them either as wild bees carry infections dangerous to the farmed ones. Apparently.
