Unless you have a hive box to move them into, leave them alone. Wild honeybees are experts at picking out their hive locations.

In order to remove the hive, you will need to cut the stump open. Are you prepared for that?

Are you sure they are honey bees? Yellow Jackets love a good tree stump too.

Is there anyway to remove the hive and bees? The stump is open on the top and they fly in that way. I was wondering about winter what will happen to the hive. If I can’t extract them should I put a roof on it?
Thanks for the info. Lou
PS. I am not a beekeeper, but have been thinking about becoming one.
