Could you maybe add an item that would eject all bees from the nest/hive you hit with it but without making them angry?

Solitary bees stay in their nests longer than hive bees stay in hives and they will also not exit during the night.

I'll have a though on how I could force them to exit, the same would be nice for hive bees. This would of course cause them to skip the production for that home trip.

A tip for you on this, is usually right away in the morning all bees will leave their nests. Therefore sleeping next to the nest is a sure fire way to get the bee to eject from it.

That said, I think this is an awesome enhancement request. It would be nice to have a smoke gun or something that uses coal and is crafted with a flint/steel. When you activate it could eject smoke and eject the bees giving them a debuff unable to return to a nest for so many seconds. I just wanted to add my thoughts to your already good idea. :)

In the new release you can whack a nest with a stick and get the bee out. It might get angry though so have some honey treats handy.
