I have honey bees in my pinbox or front cap

I need to find a way to get rid of honey bees.
I know they have not been there long and I tried sprays.I'm thinking about some spray foam,even tried a loud radio in the closet.

If you have honey bees in your pin box, you may want to try finding a local bee keeper to help with the removal of the hive. We had bees in one of our buildings at church and the bee keeper was able to remove the bees and the hive. Honey Bees may have some protections and this may be the only legal way to remove them.

check with your local authorities. Back when I was an LEO our dispatch had contact numbers of local bee keepers who would come out and remove a hive. We would get 1-2 calls a year about bees, I have even been on calls where they have attached themselves to a bumper of a car while the person was shopping.

I called the agriculture department they told me to call Terminx.
I ended up getting a big clear plastic bag and taping it over the hitch and hole,now day by day the bag is starting to fill.Glad I caught them early.

There's a big concern around here about honey bees. There's a shortage. A lot didn't travel well back up from the south.
The growers are worried about crops.
