When you remove bees from houses you must provide  hive for them and then more room to grow too. I work on frames and hives out front under a nice Sweetgum tree. I only use Walter Kelley co. frames and hives, these frames are without commercial wax foundation (it is always contaminated with pesticide-antibiotic residue). The pond from my front yard in the heights is in my front yard now out in Brazoria county.  I really enjoy the fresh air and stars at night out in the country. The bees enjoy being placed in the afternoon shade and the water from the nearby sandpit that flows by my land every day, if they are not pumping then they have  Mustang Bayou across the street.
