How can I get rid of a BEEHIVE inside the outside of my house

[Claudia Love]

ive been almost getting stung daily everytime I step outside to vape theres tons of bees
but now ive watched them there going in a hole under the siding of the house
I dont own the house but I can just imagine theres thousands in there
id like to know if I can get rid of them before next summer
even though I love what bees do
its like 1 foot away from the door and I dont want to be swarmed one day


What do you suggest I do to get rid of them?

Short form advice is to formally advise your landlord and have them hire a professional.

Invite Dougie for a press con in front of your home. They love that sweet and hot air coming out of his mouth.

At the side of the cottage years ago, I torched them with a match in front of an aerosol can(probably not recommended).

Depends on how big it is. Once I found when it just started building. It was the size of a tennis ball. I wore my winter jacket with hood and gloves to be on safer side and blew it with a water hose. I felt bad as it washed out, but I saw the bees flew without getting hurt. Try it And be safe.

If they are actually honey bees, you can call a beekeeper and they'll take them for free.

To me, it sounds like you have hornets, in which case you're fucked. You have to call PCO/Orkin or one of those services. They'll spray this dust that will dry them all out. In the Spring, you have to put out hornet queen traps using rotting meat as bait. One queen will hibernate during the Winter and emerge in the Spring to start the fuckery all over again.

I've had European Bald-faced Hornet problems off and on for years. Thousands of them bouncing off the windows.

Invite black bear mom and her cubs to your house.

Take a cup of diesel and pour it down the hole, after dark.

Call your fucking landlord. That is their job.

Is it actually a beehive or is it a wasp's nest?
I doubt you would be stung everyday if they were bees. Bees sting humans as a last resort. In Florida I was stung in my cheek by a bee and it's insides were attached to the stinger. This is how they die. I had to have a Disneyworld employee pull the stinger and attached insides out with tweezers.
Sounds like wasps if you are being stung so often.

You said you are renting though right? So you need to contact your landlord and let them deal with it.
If you deal with it yourself and end up doing damage to the home, you will be responsible.

I actually thought of this that he could eat them for me lol

wasps are yellow, bees are brown. Bees rarely make nests in the ground.

As others have said, contact your landlord to fix this issue. If they are bees, you can get a professional to safely remove them and transfer them to a new hive where they will hopefully thrive. If it is a wasp nest, that is a much more serious issue, because there is always the possibility of you beings swarmed. Again, a professional will take care of them. And, obviously, is it vital to seal up the hole they were able to use to great this nest/hive...

A cup of diesel will render the nest useless. It takes a minute and they'll move out by morning.

I'm no expert....but pouring a flammable and carcinogenic liquid into the home seems like a really bad idea....

Even when it comes to being respectfully nudged away from giving expert bee advice, pouring stinky fuel with a higher energy density than gasoline and Jet-A into the wall of a house,
