One of our hives has swarmed and taken up residence in the top of a nearby
> chimney. The resident says he will burn some newspaper in the wood stove,
> hoping that the smoke will encourage them to move on. The chimney is very
> high and very difficult to access. Will "smoking" them out like this work?
> Are there things we should be aware of (like keeping the door to the wood
> stove closed)? If they would land somewhere else we could capture them.
