Had poor luck wintering over my bees last year. Started with packages this spring. Had good luck with the packages. Don't want to winter them over. What is the best way to get rid of the bees this fall?

I've seen quite a few posters from IL and IA. I bet one will be glad to take them. If I were close I would.

How many hives do you have? I might be interested in taking them off your hands and know some others that might be interested too.
I'm 40 minutes from Cedar Rapids.
