As planned, last night saw the nest removal people arrive, and all house external lights (and most internal) extinguished. The outer shell was burnt off first of all, then the core 'honeycomb' removed. M'Sahib tells me there are a couple of hornets buzzing around this morning, no doubt wondering where their house has gone. A couple of photos sent to M'Sahib last night, not sure if they'd eaten all the lavae or not by this time.
