When my mother was alived she was sitting in my living room and ended up with a bee sting.  I am like how did this happen?  The bees got into the wall in my bedroom.  I could see dead & alive bees between the closed window and screen.  I contacted HOA and pest control came out and wiped them out.  This was over 10 years ago.

Yellow pages might have bee keepers listed and contact your local Cooperative Extension as they might have similar info.

"HONEY BEES ARE NOT PESTS."

Some of them are - Africanised honey bees, known as "killer bees"

Search online in your local area for a bee keeper who will collect the bees and relocate them.

Beekeeper!!  I called an exterminater, because I thought he might have a referral for someone to "relocate" the bees. He did!!  He removedThe  them, didnt charge me a dime.  He took honey, and the bees.  He was wonderful.  This hive was high on a pole in an abandoned bird house the previous owner installed.  This was as high as the telephone pole!  It was a duplex.  One side had a very active hive, the otherside had abandoned bird nest.  Birds and the bees😖

The bees didnt bother me a bit.  But i had several complaints about the bees.  People in back were allergic to bee stings, and the bees had stung the people next door.

I agree with others to get the beekeeper. They will handle it for you. Hope you remove the pheromones before you fix the damage as you don't want them back!

I just have to say THANK YOU to everyone for all your ideas and feedback.  

We're having a beekeeper come in and relocate the little guys .....   they are a very precious resource and I don't want even one little bee life lost!
