Bees are active from a little after dawn to just before dusk provided the air temperature is high enough (they need it to be at least 13-15 degrees celcius before they venture too far from the hive). Their peak of activity is usually early morning and late afternoon when temperatures are warm but not too hot. At midday bumblebees in particular will seek the shade of the hive as they are covered in hair and can overheat in the peak daytime temperatures. At high temperatures they will also tend to be foraging for water, which they use to cool the hive, rather than nectar.

If you have a beekeeper in the area, they will come and remove the bees for you. If you can't get in touch with a beekeeper, an exterminator can come out and remove the bees. Honey bees are important to the environment, and shouldn't be killed unless it is a last resort.
