Dozens of people were forced indoors when a swarm of bees attacked at a yard sale on a recent afternoon. Glendale Fire Department spokesman Daniel Valenzuela says about 35 people were the yard when the angry bees attacked.
Witnesses say the very aggressive bees were in their hair.
Valenzuela says several people were treated at a hospital. Three adults were stung several times and a child and an infant were stung once each and treated as a precaution.
Firefighters foamed down the hive which was found in an old tire in an adjacent yard.
To eliminate the danger of wasps living under buildings, ledges or in attics, their nests should be knocked down. Insecticides should be used for nests in hard-to-reach areas. Do not try this on your own, a professional highly trained in Bee & Wasp nest removal should be used. Most bees in Phoenix & Tucson areas are aggressive bees and can be extremely dangerous if not handled properly. These bees may attack not only you, but neighbors, pest, children and those just passing by as the people at this yard sale unfortunately found out.
