Diatomaceous earth and scratchy organic mulches are ways to kill ants without hurting honeybees in vegetable gardens. Harm to the beneficial insect in question (Apis spp) is avoided by concentrating on the ground, where ants (Formicidae family) are and bees are not. Home remedies revolve around hot water down ant holes and sprinkled cinnamon and salt along ant routes.

You can control garden insects without harming bees through insect growth materials (IGM) as insecticides based on pest insect hormones and through mass trapping methods.

I strongly suggest you get professional help. In many states and countries bees are a protected species and only licensed people may disturb them.
