Quotations from pest exterminators

Received a few replies from the pest exterminators.

All 5 companies would spray the hive with chemicals to ensure a quick death to the bees.

I'm disappointed that none of their staff would remove the hive without killing the bees.

The lowest quotation was from Clean Solutions (Tel: 64710880) whose quote was $100 for the job. The others quoted as high as $250 for the job.

Clean Solutions is one of the 2 pest exterminators recommended by National Parks and is one of the contractors for Town Councils.

The sales rep, Mr Yew, who replied my call was very professional and was genuinely concerned for my family's safety. He even followed up with a call the next day to to ask about the status of the hive.
