Has anyone come across this before. A client called me up about a lighting fault. after a couple of hours chasing the fault around I traced it to a light fitting in a cupboard in her bedroom. Unscrewed the pendant and all this slimy golden goo came out. went upstairs, yanked up a couple of floor boards and found a LOT of honey comb with A LOT of bees surrounding it. Didnt think it was wise to poke any further so waited till the client had them moved. Fault was caused by their honey filling a JB under the floor boards.

Turns out there were around 4000 bees in it.
Anyone else come across anything simelar
 
man i would of **** myself and if i pulled up floorboards and seen a lot bee,s there .as i really cant stand them and the Buzzing sound they make just goes right through me
 
And she didn't know they were there???

I've had dead birds in AHU units.
Lots of pretty feathers flying around inside House of Fraser coz birds decided to nest in the intake.
As soon as the weather got warmer the BMS switched the air con on - WHOOSH!

After Reading your post I shall be buying a beekeepers suit for all future fault finding!

Imagine that "you're lights keep going off? Right let me just put this on"

LMAO. I hope you contacted a health food shop. That's organic honey. You could have bottled it and sold it for a good wedge of cash.
Sparkys honey, 100% organic with an added jolt.
