What do you want to do? Who do you want to be?
Presuming they're standard honey bees, chances are they're nesting in a wall, roof, or under-floor cavity. Steel wool is useful for blocking gaps where vermin are entering into your living space; have another, closer look for any gaps that the bees may be using. If there's a space they're crawling through to enter your apartment, and block them.

An ordinary surface spray applied into the area they're originating from and areas they are frequenting may help, or an insecticidal dust containing permethrin can be puffed into any gaps they are exploiting, but really you need to wipe out the nest. Have a look around the outside of your building and see if you can find where they're going in and out. Whether or not you can find it, contact an exterminator, or report the problem to the person responsible for the building and get them to contact an exterminator. They'll probably destroy the nest using permethrin dust, and you can sleep soundly, dreaming of the thousands of dead bees in your walls, victim of their/your own little holocaust.

everyone posted:

Call a beekeeper.

Not that it matters now, but apiarists aren't able to extract a colony if it's in an inaccessible area such as inside the walls - they need to be able to get to the swarm to collect it.

Here's hoping the bastards don't chew through the walls and try to nest in your orifices while you're sleeping.
