Is that a song? That's kind of cool.

I sometimes feel sad for the British Queen, it reminds me of that. Although, she can leave if she wanted to.

About the bee hive, be careful about not letting the bees touch your skin, I know of someone who was working at a bee place. Beery? He got hospitalized because he had a hole in his suit thingy.

I'd definitely call the super and have him at least check it out. As others have said, you don't want those things getting into the walls.

If it is a nest, the super should be able to find a local beekeeper that can relocate them. They don't have to be killed if that's what you are worried about (well a few may perish, but not all of them).

Do you own your unit? If so, eventually the hive could start to leak through the wall into your space, then you would have a major headache.

Unless you are far south, it is unlikely that these bees will be Africanized, but that doesn't mean that falling into a hive of half a million or more of them would not be fatal.

I would suggest contacting a local beekeeper who would no doubt be happy to domesticate them.

Fresh honey without putting on winter clothes, running around on a saftey-last roof, and blowing smoke in the hive?!?! Sounds like winning to me.
