I got a call from a customer on a pig farm saying they had a hive in barn wall that had been there for two years supposedly. The bees were attacking workers and customers. I went out and looked and I was getting bumped by bees as soon as I stepped out of truck. I tore out wall and found a pretty big hive. Removed all brood and honey and bees started fanning on there new hive body and super, so I figured I got the queen. I had to use a super cause there was so many bees and comb. I figured that people were getting hit just because they were in the bees path of flight. I have since brought the hive to my house and it has been three days and I am still getting chased into my house they are flying all over the neighborhood cause I can hear everyone screaming. They have not stung us but they will buzz all in your face and hair and chase you into house and set at screen door for about 15 minutes. Now the question: does this sound like a angry hive since they are bumping and not stinging or just since I relocated them they are just nosy and they may settle down or should I just move them to country. I can't open hive cause all the frames are delicate from removal. I will try to upload some pics
