There are bee's gathering around the house, slowly building a bee hive in a corner outside of the garage door. What is the best and most effective way to get rid of the hive so the bees don't come back? Or what's the best way to prevent bees from starting the hives in the first place?

The least expensive way is to use dish or laundry detergent in a tree sprayer and let them have it. The soap coats their wings keeping them from flight, and also cloggs their thorax. That is how they breathe, so they suffocate

How To Get Rid Of A Beehive

Call an area apiarist. They should be able to help you and would most likely remove them at no charge in exchange for the hive. The bees have value and they now belong to you.

Call the apiologist (bee keeper) at your local university. Look them up in the entomology department, or just call the entomology department and they can forward you to the right person.
They will come out for free to move a bees nest. My Dad had a nest of bees living inside of his house. He had to take off the siding to get them out.
One person suggested they might be wasps. If that is the case, get some wasp killer before the nest gets too big!! Get the kind that has a long range spray, so you don't get hurt!
You'll just have to keep an eye on them. Whenever you're out gardening, walk around your property and remove any nests you see. This way you and your family stay safe, especially if anyone is allergic.

I had this problem a few weeks ago. I got some "Flying Insects RAID." I waited until after dark, and put on gloves and spraid it, standing as far away from it as I could. I did this three nights in a row. By the morning after the fourth night, the hive was dried up and dead bees were all over my deck--I swept away the bees. I knocked the hive out, into a plastic shopping bag (while wearing the gloves) with a stick. Important: spray, wear gloves and leave premises ASAP the first night you do it!!

Your first problem is that you do NOT have BEES! You have wasps. Honey bees do not build their nests outside of shelter.
To rid yourself of the wasp nest, buy a flying, stinging insecticide. If, the wasps are not causing a problem other than irritating your phobia it would be better to leave them alone and let them do what they do best, CATCH OTHER INSECTS!!!
I am not trying to be mean but, it is the truth that they do far more good alive than when dead!

Call a professional. They know what they're doing. I spent a lot of money trying to do it myself and I ended up having to get a professional.

the best way to remove one is to call in exterminators. I had a huge one on both sides of my house, about 1000 each nest, when I had my house pressure washed I had him remove it with the pressure washer, and getting hit with that kind of force, nothing survies. After that if you see them trying to come back to the same spot, open up the hose on them...they will eventually give up.
