Spray it with bee insect spray, just at dusk when they are least active. This is what I did and it worked fine...no more bees.

Nest Destruction
You may be able to locate the nest by observing the flight patterns of the wasps: if they are flying in a straight line, they're likely on a flight path to or from the nest. Wasps flying directly in and out of a single location may be entering and leaving their nest.
Before approaching the nest, be sure to wear protective clothing that covers the whole body, including gloves and a veil which covers the face, ears and neck. Wear several layers of shirts and pants. Tape clothing cuffs at wrists and ankles close to your body. Check carefully to ensure there are no exposed parts of the body; wasps may target even the smallest exposed areas.
Wait until well after dark before removing the nest. Wasps are drowsy and slower to react during the night, but you should still exercise caution during the nest removal process. Use a headlamp if you have one, otherwise have a helper to hold a flashlight for you. You'll need both hands free. Filter the flashlight by wrapping the lens with red cellophane or thin red cloth, as wasps are attracted by yellow light. Step lightly and try not to talk when approaching the nest; wasps are sensitive to vibrations.
Aerial nests
Place a cloth bag over the entire nest and quickly tie it off at the top; as you draw in the tie, pull the nest free. The bag should be well sealed. Set the bag in a pail of water; drop a rock on the bag to keep it fully submerged.
Ground nests
If the entrance to the nest is easy to see, it can be blocked using a large, clear bowl. Use caution as there may be more than one entrance to underground nests. Set the bowl over the nest entrance and work it into the ground a bit so there are no exit routes for the wasps. This will confuse the wasps, but they won't try to dig a new entrance. The bowl should remain in place for several weeks.
Underground or inside wall nests
Nests in wall voids or underground are more difficult to remove, and should be left to the professional. (If you detect a wasp nest in the wall, do not try to eradicate it from the outside. This will force them further into the house.)
When hiring a professional to treat wasp problems in the home, ask what methods will be used. A non-toxic alternative to insect sprays and dusts is vacuuming. Some prefessional exterminators are equipped with specially adapted vacuum cleaners to draw out the wasps, which are then sold to pharmaceutical companies who extract the venom for immunotherapy.
Never try to burn an active wasp nest or flood a nest with water, as this will likely make the wasps angry and aggressive.

I use road flares, light the flare then burn the nest, if any bees get by put the flare in their direction. Get cloes enough and the wing burn off because they are so thin. The smoke drives them away so theres not much chance of getting stung. Best time is probably in the evening when they all come back to the hive.

the ONLY way i have managed to be totally rid of the bees is like this:
WD-40 while the bee's are swarming all over it...spray it thickly and all that are there are dead, dead, dead
after that is hot for 30 minutes or so, wash it all off with a water hose, then wipe the spot dry, then spray with bee killer, leave the bee killer on it, let it dry there and don't wash it off.
the bee's will never re-occupy that spot

WD 40 works pretty good to kill the bees. When they are dead get rid of the nest. This works for wasps also.

They are probably not bees.
Get hornet and wasp spray at the store. It shoots for a long distance. Night time is best. If they truly are bees, then find a beekeeper. He would like them.

rail road flare you can buy them at a auto parts store, emergency flares same thing. take and light it and the sulpher smoke will put them to sleep. then reach up and take the bee hive down and do away with it. or if you want to . you can call a bee charmer.

black flag makes really good sprays. But do it at nite.
You can also save 2 litre bottles fill with left over beer, kool aid
or soda, the smell makes them interested, they go inside and
sink to the bottom. Good luck

There are foam sprays available at hardware stores, spray that in there, then one more time to make sure all bees are dead.
