If you do want to kill them then there is a solution; yet should you choose not to kill them but have the bees removed you can do this also.

      Wake up around sunrise prepared to go out with your insecticide handy. Go outside of your home during sunrise and look for the bees and see where they are gathering. Bees will be gathering around or leaving their hive at sunrise; wherever honey bees are found is a hint to where their hive is nested.

      Keep an eye open for the bees. Once you have found them, do not immediately spray insecticide in the open air. Your objective should be to spray the actual Hive.

      Watch for the opportunity to spray the hive without bees around to protect it (there may be bees inside). Spray the hive a good three times. Stand away for exiting bees, if any.

      Leave the hive there for a few hours. Return with your broom and knock it down or out of wherever it has been nested. With the hive gone and sprayed , the bees still living will leave and the ones who return to it and attempt to enter it will die.
