Some species that are identified as bees are in actual fact wasps and need to be dealt with in an entirety different manor. Also to consider is the fact that honeybees should never be destroyed unless there is no other alternate. Honeybees are sadly becoming rarer and as they often fall to parasites and other insects. To this end it is always best to relocate or protect hives wherever possible. NEVER DESTORY A HONEYBEE HIVE WITHOUT CONSULTING A PROFESSTIONAL.

Beehives located in walls or underground require the assistance of a professional and should not be dealt with on your own. In some case removal will not be possible and a professional will have to make a judgment as how to proceed.
If on further investigation the nest turns out to be a wasp's nest, rather than that of a bee, then it needs to be dealt with in a different manor. Wasp nests will generally die over winter, so unless they are posing a threat it is best to leave alone, as wasps can become aggressive and sting repeatedly. If the removal of a wasps nest is necessary, it is best to call a professional pest control expert. However, if a nest is small and in plain sight, it may be possible to deal with it yourself. In this case purchase a can of wasp killer from any local garden store and follow the instructions carefully. It is always best to ware goggles and gloves and to carry out the extermination at night. Do not stick around after spraying the nest, make sure you can make a quick getaway and make sure no one is planning to enter that area for a little while.
