We got bees nesting in undercarriage.

While working on my slideouts the other day I noticed one after another bees arriving, and crawling into a small slit between the coroplast and the frame. I have no idea how to discourage them from entering and riding along with us on our next trip. They are not normal honeybees either, they are larger and colored black and yellow. Almost like a small bumblebee. I guess I could transport them to our next stop but that group of people might not appreciate them either. I would like them to hitch a ride some other way or stay home. Any suggestions?

I had a similar issue this year. I put my slides out and the air was suddenly filled with wasps. I gave them about an hour to settle down and then located the nest on the frame and sprayed it with wasp spray. I noticed them on the other side of my coach, too. I haven't been able to locate the second nest, though.

Sounds like you have a wasp/yellow jacket nest.
Home Depot - wasp and yellow jacket spray into the entry hole...soak it. Best to do in the last evening or night when most of the colony is home. Even better if you can peel back the coroplast and blast the nest directly with the spray.

The seal the hole.

Don't seal the hole until the nest has been eliminated my neighbor did that and the bees found a new entrance/exit through the trailer, not fun having bees filling up your living quarters.

Find a local beekeeper and he will get rid of them for you.

Bug spray... Probably not a good idea to transport flying insects from state to state.
