Default Big problem with bees

Went to use the Weber kettle BBQ and discovered a huge hive of bees taking up 80% of the space between grill and cover.

Any ideas on how to deal with it????

Call your local FD, they should be able to get you in contact with a local bee rescue service.

The queen is valuable so you might want to start keeping bees.

See if there is any local bee keepers, they can remove it.

Ditto above! IF they are honey bees, then any number of local beekeepers will only be too happy to come remove your 'problem.' Often local fire or police departments will keep a swarm list for just such occurances. Failing that, do a search for your area's local bee club(s),usually there will be a contact for the executive members at least.
