Bee Problem - who do I call?

There is a bees nest somewhere on the side of our house. It has to be either under the siding or somewhere hidden in the structure because you cannot see it. Yet there is a swarm of bees around there daily and lately they have been getting into the house. Most of the time they are half dead already (I read when they get inside they become lethargic/ tired and die fairly quickly) but sometimes they are alive and freak me out...

Does anyone know who we should call to take care of this? I have been googling but would prefer to call someone off a recommendation.

Thank you!

Are they honey bees or another type of bee?

If its honey bees you can call beekeepers to take them away.

Re: Bee Problem - who do I call?

We had the same exact problem 2 years ago. Couldn't figure out where the nest was but knew it was by a window in our den since I would find most of them half dead or dead (like you said) on the window sill. Finally called an exterminator for a free estimate. I believe it was Arrow. We're in NJ so that doesn't help you. The good news is when he came over he looked all around the den then we walked outside around the perimeter. He spotted the nest right by the window and gutter on the side of the house. He told me how to get rid of them and if we couldn't do it then they'd come but they don't remove nests. Anyway, DH got rid of it ASAP. If you do find the nest best time to do it is early in the morning when it's colder out and they're in it. Put a ladder on the side the night before thrn let them settle after that. DH sprayed like crazy early in the AM thrn ran! lol. Well, it worked!
Best advise was from the exterminator and it didn't cost a thing but spray.

Btw- most likely they're wasps. That's what we had. Wasps are the worst! There's no purpose for them.
Good luck!
