At least we saved the babies

He had bees in the wall of his garage.  This was a big hive, 3 feet long and 16 inches wide.  We cut the wall open and removed the comb.  This was an easy removal and our friend helped.  When we opened the wall we expected a lot of bees, but there were very few.  There was lots of brood though.  We put the brood in some of our other hives which made them stronger.
