While I was looking online for some information that would help me get rid of them I found this article about a man who accidently burnt his house down while trying to get rid of them. I also found some very interesting links relating to other people and how they are having the same kind of trouble - some even more worse than me!
- How To Get Rid Of Wasps (which I think is what they are)
- Google Search - How Do Bees Get In The House
- Why Do Wasps Like Me?
- FAQ
- How To Get Bees Out Of House
10/15/07 Update - Well I found out that the bees seem to be getting inside the window between the top and bottom window panes (is that the right word?). You see there is an air conditioner in that window which means that the bottom window had to be pushed up in order to get the air conditioner in the window. Now the bees seem to be coming in between the top window and bottom window. Now there is some insulation foam in the window but it seems that the bees are pushing through it. It looks like the insulation foam has deteriorated some and the bees are getting in through it. I put some more foam-like material to close the gap and now I have to see how well that works.
Update - Saturday, October 27, 2007 - Well it looks like they are getting in some other kind of way via that area. I had a chance to do some observing and it kind of looks like they are coming from the bottom of the radiator area (the radiator that sits under the window). I could have sworn that I heard them "pushing" through something but that could just be my over-active imagination. I know not to shine a flashlight in the area because I read online that that isn't good. So I still have to wait and see where they are coming from and the sooner the better!
