No such luck. Bullhead /Laughlin area. I might give them a call though, see if they have a recommendation.

Time to put a bow on this post. We couldnt find any beekeepers around that wanted aggressive wild bees, so we decided they had to be exterminated. The first couple companies we talked to didnt want to do the job, probably because they were in the wall.
The Ortho guy said he would come out and take a look. Gave us a quote, said he could handle it right away. He said they might have been in there for months,maybe up to a year (?). He and his trainee (looked like an executive that lost a job to chinese flu, needed any job he could get!) donned bee suits, used a cartridge sprayer and a regular sprayer, ar the base of the wall, in the hole by the security light, and inside the garage.
When he finished, he said to give it a few days and see if they were gone/dead. If they werent, he would come back and attack them again. No charge. I just now got back from checking, found 1000+ dead bees, but not one single live one. Yay!!! Now i can get back to ripping my car apart!
Best news? They had a special going. Normal price would have been $250, he charged me $99, i tipped him $20, now i feel bad i didnt give him $40, cause i wouldnt have done that job for five hundred bucks! Next step though, is to find the hive and get rid of it.
THANK YOU ALL, for your help and advice, i really appreciate it!
