I have a bee problem. How can I locate the hive?

There are two large (8-9 feet tall), non-flowering bushes that adorn the outside stairway to my apartment building. There is one nearby tree, also. And there are flying insects EVERYWHERE! Mainly bumblebees and wasps (some yellow jackets)…although I see a few honey bees every once in a while. I can’t walk outside my front door without having to dodge something flying by. I remember a small problem last year, but I can’t remember if it lasted throughout the entire summer. But it wasn’t nearly as bad as it is now. They’re quite the kamikaze sort, and I’m afraid one will fly inside my home or inside my vehicle. How can I locate the hive and have someone take care of the problem?

What’s the best way to fight bees, wasps, and yellow jackets ?

There must be a nest outside my front door in one of the bushes because all types of stinging insects fly in and out like a colony every day. It’s very warm now in Atlanta and I need to trim the hedges … but I ain’t crazy. Is there a product or home remedy I can make to kill & repell these threats ?

What is the best way to eliminate ground nest of stinging insects?

I know I have the sweet bees, or whatever they are called, but also hornets or yellow jackets that make nests in the ground and leave a mound of dirt about ground-they build them very quickly, usually overnight

The stairwell of my apartment building is infested with bees, wasps, yellow jackets, and hornets what can I do

The wooden stairwell that is leading up to my apartment is infested with boring bees, hornets, yellow jackets, and wasps. Last year we literally had to take a can of hornet spray and spray them just to get in and out of the car or apartment. I have a 1 year old son and I don’t want him to get stung. I am terrified of wasps hornets etc but my husband thinks that I am overreacting because I am afraid of them but the waps built nests in the stairwell and on the side of our building near the stairwell last year and I got stung coming up the stairs. They had to come and knock down the nests but it didn’t work they just kept coming back. I don’t know what to do. I have called and left a message with the apt office and they have not returned my call yet (that was like a week ago). My hubby won’t back me if I call the office again because he says if I leave the wasps, etc alone then they won’t bother me. Well, thats just ridiculous because I got stung and I wasn’t bothering them. Please help!
