Bees in Car...How to remove?

I just got my '36 Chevy Slant Back home...Only to find out a swarm of angry bees have taken up residance in it...I just found this out about an hour or so ago when I went out to clean it out...and caught 2 bee stings to the face...

My warning should have been the buzzing inside the seat...but I neglected to pay any attention to it...

So what would you guys recomend for getting them gone?

 

those bee guys

usually have some big device that exhales SMOKE

if you cant find that

find two HIPPIES to sit in your car...my hippy friend permantly is exhaling smoke

 

Had the same thing happen in an old micro bus i was working on. It was pushed out of the shop and the bee keeper dude couldnt get there till the next day. I wasn't going to push it back in the shop with a million bees in it so i left it out side for the night. The owner was trippin it was going to get stolen. I told him if someone messes with it they will wish they hadnt. Any way, call a bee keeper they will come out in the am while the bees are calm and take em away for a small fee.

 

my brother sold a truck to a friend of ours he got to the gas station and the bees started buzzing as he was filling up the tank I guess they had taken up residence inside the front fender and the short ride to the gas station must have pissed them off wish I could have seen that one in person

 

Call it a "Super Bee" and drive it!!

 

try this....throw a big tarp over the entire car, toss in a couple of those bug foggers for fleas in the cab and run like hell. Give it a few hours or overnite that should do it. I have no idea if this will work but it sounds like it could be fun to watch from a distance

 

bug bombs and a tarp like russco said. may wanna do it at night. bees dont seem to be so active at night. or you could sport a ty-vek suit, tape it up real good, put on gloves a ski mask, and swimming goggles, tape them up good, get a flyswatter or two, and go ape-**** on their little society. personally option two sounds like more fun to me. once you kill the queen the bees will leave. if you do option 2 please post pics, they would be ever so funny!

 

a kitty cat's not gonna work this time.. bug bomb! bomb them , bomb them all!! haha!

 

i would avoid layin into em with poison , thats your future work enviorment, smoke em

 

Bought a '59 Caddy from a neighbor years ago, and heard an odd buzzing under the seat when we got it home and fired it up. Thought it was something in car. Turns out it was something in the car alright, bald faced Hornets in a nest under the front seat. They swarmed out and stung the bejeezus out of my brother and I before we could get out, then we found you can't outrun 'em!

Bug bomb and a tarp is exactly what we did. Don't set it off inside and shut the doors, stuff's oily and will stain. We opened dthe doors and trunk, covered it with a big tarp, touched off the bomb and dropped the tarp, left it overnight. Killed 'em all.

 

Roll the windows up and leave a open cup full of paint stripper inside it. Works better if you have a light on right above the stripper can. I couldn't believe all the dead bees I had the next morning. Never knew that many bees existed. I would only do it this way with a project car.

 

put a tarp over the car and bug bomb get the stuff thats safe for furniture and household, as long as you air it our real good after you should be fine working in it

 

Talking about bees, last monday night I cut catalytic converters out of used exhaust pipes. Tuesday morning I threw them in the jeep at 7 in the morning. That day I drove around looking at repossessed houses so I didn't get to my buyer until around 1 in the afternoon. The guy's helper and me takes them out and throw them on the shop floor. All this time nothing seems wrong until the helper sticks a rod in one of them and we had a swarm of bees that came out. Boy I'm sure glad they didn't come out in the jeep and glad it was his shop not mine. Sorry for getting side tracked but me and the wife thought it was funny afterwards.

 

I Barbequed once

left an big gl*** bowl

of B B Q sauce and honey on my porch

next morning.....hundreds of bees in that bowl

gluttony

 

thats a great idea.

 

how bout this for ya take a milk jug put some coke and sour milk in it cut two v's in it but keep the lid on it but push the v's in just enough so they can get in but not out and if you want the tarp go for it but just check it and it will cost you a lot less

 

Don't kill them if they are honeybees - call a beekeeper and let him take care of it! Enough honeybees are dying of unusual cir***stances all over the country! Honeybees are a good thing! Let a pro remove them for you.

If they are wasps, hornets, yellowjackets, or the like, then yeah, kill them all!

 

How hot does one of those bake-on paint booths get? Maybe they could get roasted that way and you wouldn't have to worry about chemicals and bugbombs and tarps and stuff.

Or you could drive to Antarctica and freeze 'em. Anybody got a drive-in meatlocker?

Joe

 

FYI for the future stings, use meat tenderizer. Wet a paper towel and put a bunch on it and wipe it in the sting. Works for wasps too.

 

Wait until about 12:00 a.m. and unbolt the seat and take it out and put a tarp over it and bomb it.

 

Dress up as a queen bee, gain their trust and when they least expect it !!!SQUASH!!!
Stab them in there little backs!!!

 

Raid!!!

 

Simple fly strip hanging in the car may work too. But probably best to just fog the car. Please share your results of what you try...

Well,

You always have this option!!

I've never seen honeybees invade a car but my 51 Ford convertible did become a home for bejillions of their bigger cousins, the blackandyellow bumblebees! They built mud nests in the front and rear seat cushions of the car when I had it parked for a good while under a carport, no top! Luckily I had had the cushions out and they were just laying loose rather than seated in the frames, I pushed the car out into the driveway and bombed them for a while with some of that directional wasp/bee blaster stuff. That knocked alot of the action down so I could reach in and flip the cushions over and up then blast 'em from the bottom side.
I never saw so many bees before or since. My driveway and the front yard looked like a blackandyellow sea as those bees fought the effects of the spray and roamed and stumbled around for several hours. The seat cushions were packed with mud which I knocked loose and then blasted out with a water hose. What a mess.

 

Yellow jackets are tough sons of bees. We had a nest in the front seat of a '39 ford one time. Tried smoking them out but to many survived, and it just seemed to piss them off even more. We ended up removing the seat and setting it on fire. I'd try the tarp with the bomb, or maybe two bombs....

 

You could not figure this out on your own?

 

shave one side, set the other side on fire, when they come out stab them with an icepick...............wait, that's how to rid yourself of crabs (a.k.a. amigos)

 

Depending on the situation, you could try a shop vac. Put any extensions you have on it and push the hose up under the seat. You'd have to let it run a while, but it might work. I did that with some hornets of some kind that built a nest in the ground next to my house foundation. I had a guy doing some masonry work and the hornets were causing some problems for him. I pulled out the shop vac, turned it on, and put the hose next to the hole they were coming out of. Worked pretty well too. When they got ****ed up, they hit a "shield" inside the vac that killed them so I didn't have to worry about what would happen when I emptied the vac out.
