If they are honey bee's as opposed to bumbles then an apiarist will take them but if they are in the cavity then probably not. And you aren't allowed to kill them whether they are bumbles or honey bee's, so if they aint pestering you leave alone  :y :y

Honey Bee's!  :y 

One crash landed in front of me the other day as he was over loaded with pollen!  He sat and had a breather for a couple of minutes and then buzzed off!  :y

I've just had a look in the attic and there's no sign of a nest, so it looks as though they're in the cavity, where they can stay!  :y

You'd think the cheeky little bastids would give me some honey for rent though!  :-\  ;D

Got exactly the same as you Steve, nothing in the loft, but loads flying around the end apex. :y

Phoned the council, but all they said was just leave them alone :(

Just had the gutters and facias done on my Mums flat. They found a bees nest, behind the old facia. Exterminators or pest controle, what ever they are, said, wasps, no problem. Bees, they can't, won't, are not allowed to touch.

Not likely to cause any agro anyway.

It looks as though my bees have buzzed off to pastures new, as there bee no sign of any activity!  ::)

There was a good programme on bees last night on BBC2 with Chris Packham the guy from Springwatch.  I think part 2 is on tonight and it's worth watching as it's very fascinating!  :y

Same here, Steve.....they seem to have 'buzzed' off. ;D

Have not seen one for a few days now. Never did have any in the loft, or indoors. And as we have cavity wall insulation, I assume they must have been under the tiles. :y

I assumed that the cavity wall insulation stuff must settle so maybe there's a nice space for them to nest in the apex?  :-\

They say bees are in danger, I'd look at local club/keepers. Shame to have them smoked out :(
