See 35,000 Bees Swarm From The Ceiling Of A Brooklyn Home

FLATBUSH, BROOKLYN — It started with a few stray bees buzzing around a Brooklyn bedroom. It ended in a scene straight from a horror movie.

Pest control experts who had been called into the Flatbush home to check on a handful of bugs cut into the ceiling – and unleashed a swarm 35,000 strong that was living there, the New York Post reported.

Stuart Mulzac, 26, contacted the professionals after one of the bees that had been buzzing around the home for months stung a neighbor, the Post said.

The professional arrived at the East 21st Street home on July 12 and had to cut a 4-foot hole into the ceiling to get past a massive honeycomb that had formed. As mounds of honey dripped down the walls, the thousands of bees were released. The discovery was captured on video.

“I was amazed, just amazed. It was phenomenal,” the expert, Mickey Hegedus, 52, told the Post.

“I expected to find half of that — at the most.”

"It felt like it was the National Geographic Channel," Mulzac told the Post. "It was almost like we were in a movie like ‘Attack of the Bees.’ I couldn’t believe it.

“When you see so many, you just feel like they’re crawling on you. It’s spooky that they could live here all these years and we had no idea — you can’t even hear them."

It took Hegedus seven hours to suck up the bees with a special vacuum. They will be relocated, the Post said.

The video shows the bee expert inside the bedroom of the home examining the swarm:

There is some good news to come out of the situation: The beekeeper left Mulzac with 70 pounds of pure honey.

"It’s literally 100 percent all natural, probably better than the stuff you can get in the store. Homemade," Mulzac told the Post.

Hegedus said the insects likely got into the house via some loose bricks and could have been living there for years.
