    I’d had this over my front door for however long it took for them to build it. My pest control service said the size of the nest can affect how aggressively defensive they might respond to perceived intruders. I guess maybe I was just lucky we caught this one before it got any more developed.

      There may be some precedent for that. Swarming bees (that’s what they’re called when they’re clumped in random places without a home) are very docile because they have nothing to protect.
