I had a big hive in my barn for years but had it moved finally, it was doing damage and I'm allergic to bees. You don't want them in your attic. You might find someone listed in your local directory or ask your county's agricultural extension agent.

Good call, after reading this I looked up to see if there were any local honey bee people, and there are at least a dozen that will come and remove the hive and "swarm", then take to their bee farm. The damage to the house will be worth getting them out of here

We also have at least 30 black locust saplings planted by the previous owner to facilitate the honey bees.

Ill see if the bee people want any of these young trees as well, that are thriving. Im planning to remove all of them.
