Firefighters remove massive bee swarm from Chinese apartment

QINGDAO, China, July 18 (UPI) -- Firefighters in a Chinese city donned beekeeping suits to remove thousands of bees that took over a portion of a resident's apartment.

Video from the scene July 11 in Qingdao, Shandong Province, shows firefighters in protective gear spraying down the massive swarm of bees occupying a corner of the apartment.

The firefighters said the bees were eventually subdued enough to allow them to move the insects and their honeycomb.
