How to Get Rid of Killer Bees

Scouring the 'net you'll find many off the wall ideas on how to get rid of killer bees. To save you time, here's the best method.

1. Wait until near sunset. Bees sleep as well as they call it a night just before the sun goes down. You'll know it's a good time when you don't see them flying around anymore as well as they are all huddled up together in a pile. If you can wait til dark, that's better but you'll need some lighting.
2. Don your armor. You probably won't need it but just in case.. get on two layers of clothing as well as some sort of head protection (such as a motorcycle helmet). Duct tape the end of the sleeves as well as pant legs once they are on. You don't want any exposed skin to show. Since you're waiting til the evening, you probably won't need it since the bees will drop like a sack of potatoes when you hit them with my solution below.
3. Depending on your hive or hive-under-construction, you may need up to 4 buckets. I had to use 4 on two medium sized hives right next to each other. Fill each bucket with the following ingredients: 1 part Laundry Detergent (liquid or powder.. doesnt matter) to 3 parts water. Fill the bucket to about 75% full. MIX WELL. The soapy water is what is going to suffocate as well as kill your bees. Too much water as well as many will survive as well as become upset for days. Don't skimp on the soap!!
4. Near sunset or before sunrise, take your buckets to the site of the killer bees. You can get close to them now since you are wearing your ghetto bee armor as well as they are sleeping anyway. Take aim as well as unload your buckets of soapy water upon their wicked hive. You'll see that they will drop to the ground like a sack of potatoes as well as if you missed any, they will continue to sleep as if nothing happened (Good News for Us). Repeat until you have slaughtered them all.

You may be able to convince your fire department to get rid of your bees if you are too scared.
