KATY, Texas — The local ABC news station in Katy, Texas, had video of Claude Griffin with Gotcha Pest Control attempting to remove upwards of 500,000 bees from a home near Houston.

According to the news report, homeowner Charmaine Albert says she tried numerous other exterminators with no luck.

“It’s a very dangerous situation,” she said. “The bees just keep returning. They leave briefly, but keep returning.”

Griffin says in order to guarantee the bees don’t come back he has to locate and remove all the honeycombs. One of six hives stretched six feet into the home. The bees themselves are a mixture of honey and Africanized.
