Just curious, has anyone actually got any successful calls from people through the swarm/bee removal map?

"Nay, it [this constitution of government] must perish, if there be not that vital spirit in the people, which alone can nourish, sustain, and direct all its movements. It is in vain, that statesmen shall form plans of government, in which the beauty and harmony of a republic shall be embodied in visible order, shall be built up on solid substructions, and adorned by every useful ornament, if the inhabitants suffer the silent power of time to dilapidate its walls, or crumble its massy supporters into dust; if the assaults from without are never resisted, and the rottenness and mining from within are never guarded against. Who can preserve the rights and liberties of the people, when they shall be abandoned by themselves? Who shall keep watch in the temple, when the watchmen sleep at their posts? Who shall call upon the people to redeem their possessions, and revive the republic, when their own hands have deliberately and corruptly surrendered them to the oppressor, and have built the prisons, or dug the graves of their own friends?

I have received a couple calls from it but they were both over 200 miles from me. Tried to find someone in their area for them but had no luck.

I'm under for sale, farm and garden?? home and garden?? something like that.
Then I title the add free bee swarm removal, (clinton area)
then you show up under most general searches. I'm sure it probally should be listed under services, technically, but you wouldn't show up for most searchers.

I am listed on several online resources. I am not sure if any of the callers used this site, but I have gotten all but one call from online searches. I also get a lot of calls from people who have no idea what a honey be is. Others are from great distances and cannot fine anyone local for removals. Lots of false alarms! Like..."I seen bees in the flowers in my garden, can you get them out of there??" Or, 'there are honey bees in a big paper nest under the gutter of my house!' Tons of calls about 'bumbles' and one call about big black and yellow/orange butterflies bothering cold drinks at their pool!  You know that you have to watch out for those drink stealing buttflies!

I just got one from a referal, President of the Loudon County beeks and from craigs list.
It is going to be a cut out on a 3 seasons porch, what ever that is. She said it was about 2 feet off of the ground and she would have her friend put the boards back on the house, can't beat that. Been there three weeks, and did not want the exterminators to kill them out. We will see later this afternoon.
