- 1). Wear gloves, a long-sleeved shirt, pants and boots. Approach the hive at dusk, when all of the bees are resting inside.
- 2). Spray the nest with a ready-to-use insecticidal spray for bees. Most are simply sprayed directly onto the nest until it is saturated; however, read the directions on the label for best results.
- 3). Observe activity at the nest the following day. The bees are sufficiently eliminated if none are seen flying in and out of the nest. Spray the nest again at dusk at three-day intervals if you still see bee movement.
