I received a request to remove a hive from within a house wall today. Is this possible this time of the year?

I thought one of the other bee removal specialists would have answered by now.
In my opinion it would be difficult to re-establish the bees this late in the year. You could however boost the population of a weaker colony or use them to replace a poorer genetic stock.
