*sigh* We just discovered honey bees are colonising our house. And we can't try to kill the colony until nightfall when they're in their new home and not buzzing around the entrance.
So, if I'm here to start a game, I'd have to take like a half hour break around 8:30-9:00 to go out and try to kill 'em. If they head in for the night earlier, I can be here around 8:00. Hopefully that works out, but I may be stuck out there until around 8:30 so if you guys want to play without me, no problem. We had termites, and still do, we have carpenter bees chewing into the garage area, we have pack rats chewing up car wiring, and now honey bees in the house. I woke up today and found about 10 bees in my room all trying to get out the window. 
Btw, once we kill the bees, we still have to cut into the siding in a couple days to remove the honey or it'll start melting and getting into all sorts of stuff.
These things are smart though, we placed some incense at the entrance to trick them into thinking a fire was nearby so the queen would leave, but some of the workers came out and used their wings to fan the smoke away from the hive while others tried to knock the incense stick away. I really hate killing them but if we don't, they could pack our walls with over a 100 pounds of honey and once that melts, it could do some real damage. Ah the rural life, one infestation after another...
