Honey bees nest - to poison or not to poison

So the bees are swarming near my back door and I am certain they are honey bees. Should I attempt to kill the whole hive or what?

If you're white just let a beaner deal with it, not worth getting stung.

Most are free, they want the bees.

then a bird whos hungry and eats the bee will get sick with the canadian flu, crap on your car, and when you wash your car you'll get it

sure spread the poison around

btw did you learn whether or not its really toxic waste from a factory trying to get rid of it before you actually paid them to take the "bee killer" ?

They won't bother you. Honey bees don't sting. Wasps and yellow jackets are a different story.

Seriously... are you out of your mind?

Try to relocate them somewhere, and let them live. They help with the world, really.

Very unlikely it is honey bees. Almost certainly yellow jacket.

Bees are dying out. Have you seen honey prices? Save them if possible. In fact, you could start your own hive and produce (and sell) your own honey.

I noticed a huge decline in bees on local flowering trees this year. I never saw too many honey bees (non-native) but we had a whole bunch of smaller bee types. I know it was a cold winter but the year before the bees were numerous and we also had the Polar Vortex weather prior winter.

Did you call them? I'd be curious to know how they do their thing.
