Moving a bee population/rescue operation

We have suddenly gotten a hive in our porch foundation of what seems to be a fairly significant population of small honey bees. I was OK with it, but my wife got stung and wants them GONE. I will attempt to post a picture. I am close to unemployed, so we can't pay anything, but I've heard that beekeepers will coax the bees away somehow. Sorry, I was unable to upload the picture.

It would be most helpful to post pictures. They very well could be yellow jackets. They are much more aggressive than honey bees and will light you up just for lookin' at them.

I'll need instructions on how to upload the image.

I'd be happy to send the picture either way, but I'd like to learn how to do it here as well.

I don't know how to either. I just drug a photo from my downloads file on my laptop but I don't think it worked. But my email is
mbevanz@yahoo.com if you would like to send me a pic. Matt.
