I talked to the homeowner. Suggested spraying the chimney with water to make the bees uncomfortable.

Clump of bees at the top of the chimney.  Fireplace flue.
perhaps moving into the  chimney

I suggested spraying some imitation almond in the hearth and blowing it up the chimney with a fan.
If that doesn't drive them out,  and the swarm decides to take over the chimney, it's an extraction.
