I doubt that they are bees-they usually swarm in the spring. To many people any insect that is not a butterfly must be a bee. What your renter describes as "it" is probably a hornet or yellow jacket paper nest that are often round, gray and hang in trees,hidden by leaves. The insects spend all summer building their nest never noticed by anyone until fall when leaves die and drop.. A beekeeper won't be interested in saving hornets. Here is an easy plan to remove nest (if that is what they are). 1. Get aerosol can of insecticide from garden or hardware store. 2. Enlist brave person to spray contents up into hole at bottom of nest ( after dark-all occupants will be inside). This should kill them all. These nests a saved by many to adorn their office, store or den. If to be saved, gather large plastic garbage bag and lift up and around and over top of branch from which nest hangs (like putting a pillow slip onto pillow) and clamp shut with clothes pins or spring clips. 3. Remove limb with prune shears, store everything for several days so that everything is dead. I have removed a few and not gotten stung.
