So the damn tree trimmer quits today and tells my wife he cannot finish with the big tree by the pool because he is afraid of getting stung by a bee, from my desk at work I yell at her to tell the guy to stop being such a PUSSY and just get the shit done that he said he'd do, the lazy bastard.........he still refuses to finish that one tree........
So I get home from work all pissed off, and take a look into the tree, the GOD DAMNED bee hive is the size of a friggin basketball..FUCK!

You gotta torch that thing like it was Frankenstein and you were an angry mob. Put on some thick clothes and a mask, toss some gasoline or alcohol on it, and put a torch to it! Otherwise, those things will never go away......then repeat with the tree trimmer!

Or you can call the County/Police and they will remove the bee hive. Don't call someone pirvate your have to pay them. Tell them your scared of the bees and they seem to be "aggressive". BTW, had a beehive move into a soffit in my house a couple of years ago around Xmas, and it took me working every night (when they are quiet and sleeping) to kill them. After a week (when I removed enough of the shingles on my house), I put a flea bomb in the area and it killed the little bastards. The hive occupied the a volume of 1' x 2' x 1.5'.
Scary shit....I swear I sharted myself when I put that flea bomb in the middle of the bees; of course I was in full on ski gear with every opening duct tape----I look like some kind of physcotic (sp) stalker.

It's easy to get rid of them. Either wait until dusk when they are much less active and spray them w/ wasp/hornet killer, or you can smoke them out and remove the nest to burn it. You might get stung a few times but they won't kill you. Any remaining bees should disperse once they realize their nest is gone.
I would suggest trying the spray first because the good stuff will kill any bees returning to the nest w/in 24 hours of the initial spray.

Be a MAN!!! Walk up to the tree, climb it and take the nest down by hand. That's what I would do. (cue sound of thumping chest)

By the way . . . smoking works for wasps, but not bees. I spent a summer moving bee hives from the south to the north one summer for a small time industrial honey producer. They literally have a small one-handed can with a bellows on the back of it that they fill with pine straw and light. Then they puff smoke across the bee hive and it sends out a signal where the bees all RETURN to the hive . . . the company uses it so they lose fewer bees during transit. It does, however, calm the bees and keep the workers from getting stung as much. Well . . . it keeps the bees in the hive for a period of time . . . I don't know of it really calms them. Using that technique I moved some 4000 bee hives in jeans and a t-shirt and only got stung once over the course of the summer.
My choice would be calling animal control or the city. Say you are having an Easter family get-together and you know some of the family attendees are allergic to bee stings. Simple, to the point and should get the job done. Heck they will probably turn around and sell the bees to local honey producers so everyone wins . . . even the bees.

This sounds like a case for Billy the exterminator! LOL
Have you guys seen that show on A&E? The exterminators... pretty nasty stuff.
But seriously, just rent a flame thrower or one of those power spray deals and END IT! We had a bees nest the size of a medicine ball when I was a kid and we had hours of fun spraying it with the hose and then running like hell! Eventually the thing fell out of the tree and we plugged it with a note that said: "No trespassing"... and they never came back. ;D

(replace "." with "?" for proper punctuation) You (replace "a" with "ou") know the funny part is I (change to upper-case) don't even hate Canada lol. I did translate, but I don't understand the meaning of the first sentence fragment of the above two sentence paragraph that refers to having "biscuits and gravey" Maybe he got the southern part of the United States (who loves biscuits and gravy) confused with our friends to the north?? You know that can happen with nicotine deprivation. On a side note...too bad this site is not like MS Word and won't allow us to make changes to Greg's posts. We could use the "Final showing mark-up" feature.
