Several years ago, I called the Heating in addition to Air Conditioning supplier. I wanted to know who I should call to have the chimney cleaned. I wanted to have the fireplace ready for use in case I needed it. My furnace was getting aged plus all of us had been having complications for quite a while now. They kept telling myself and others that it could completely die at any time. I knew that if I had the fireplace prepared for use, I would have some kind of heating in the house. I kept looking at a dark spot on the wall that was up against the chimney. I thought maybe the heat of the chimney was causing the wall to become discolored. The complication here was that it kept getting greater plus darker, plus there wasn’t a fire in the fireplace. When I talked to the people who cleaned the chimney, she told myself and others they couldn’t even see in the chimney. She was going to put a light inside plus try to get a picture of what the blockage was. They put one light plus camera up the chimney from the inside, plus one down the chimney from the outside. Five hours later, the chimney cleaner came in plus told myself and others I needed an exterminator or a beekeeper. There wasn’t anything she could do. From the bottom where the spot was up to about 4 feet down, inside the chimney, the chimney was one large honey bee nest. I called around to see if I could find a beekeeper who would be able to entice the bees out. I didn’t want to kill them all, but I didn’t want honey plus dead bees in my chimney when I lit the fireplace..
