removing/killing bees anyone?

Hey everyone -

about a month ago we noticed some bees making a home inside the exterior wall of our house - there is a small/tiny piece of siding missing and they go in and out of it all day long

i haven't done anything about it because 1. it is next to Eli's window which is open a lot when it is warm and i don't want to put toxic chemicals near there until it gets cold and his window is shut all the time and 2. Eli's window is on the second floor and i'm pretty darn freaked about being that high up on a ladder!

this morning Eli discovered two bees in his room buzzing around.

in fact they woke him up at 6am - ouch, NOT a fun wake up experience for him :(

so it seems i must put on my *brave face and deal with it now - i'm wondering if ya'll have less toxic suggestions for dealing with them? toxic chemicals are NOT my first choice for things to spray next to my kids window BUT he is NOT ok with them coming in his room (i can't say i blame him) so....

i need ideas please
