Locate a bee keeper in the area and have them come get the hive.

Yep, way too many bees for you to do it yourself.

Just stand below it and shake it really really hard

Vernon, if you will do it, I will run the camera

If you were located close I would loan you my bee suit. I would try to find someone to collect them and the honey. I would definitely build a new box blind, IME they will keep coming back to the old location due to the smell of the honey. I have fought them in an old farm house for the past 8 yrs now. I have foamed the holes and they eat through the foam to get to honey/comb. Try to kill them with 7 Dust and Demon WP. It moves them away temporarily since I have not been removing the honey/comb in the walls. They just move down the outside wall to a new crack or hole in the wall and start over. They also now under the back porch(concrete) in a difficult location to even get to with an entry hole under the back door that goes under the house, then into the concrete porch. I think there are now 4 locations in that old house with bees. Once I put a new blind up in that same location I would put in the ProZap No Pest strips in the blind during the off season and while you are hunting. That will help keep them out of the blind in the future along with keeping wasp/yellow jackets out of it this fall.

I'll bet that in the near future we'll see stxranchman honey on the grocery shelves!

Yes sir the do. Bees can be in a hollow tree or old piece of farm equipment or deer feeder or shed or old building or storage shed or camphouse or ?????? Just cuz they weren't there last month does not meant they did not move in. When I sprayed the bees in that old house with Demon WP in October they was not activity at all for the next 2 months till I went to the rural water meter box to get the monthly reading. Luckly it was a 36 deg Jan day when I open the cover and was greeted by a new honey comb and wad of bees. I had a dozer operator out 2.5 yrs ago pushing an old fenceline so I could rebuild the fence. I went to check on him and found him off his dozer at his truck. He was laughing and said he hit a limb with the top of roll cage on his dozer and broke a Live Oak limb off. It was hollow down into the trunk and full of bees. He was heading to town to get a bee suit so he could finish that section of fence. Luckily he was only hit 3 times and the bees weren't the africanized ones. That tree is on the neighbors land I and told him about so if he went down the fenceline to watch out. He told me he was allergic to bees. Not sure if it just me but it sure seems to be more bees around the South Texas area in the past 10 yrs than ever in my lifetime.
