KCtsang advised me to smoke the bees away. Apparently, bees dislike smoky environments.
What he said makes sense in view of this video footage of how professionals in India smoke bees away:
So I may just try closing all the windows in the toilet and light a few mosquito coils continuously for a few days next week. Let's see if the bees will leave.
However, do note the hilarious situation this Japanese monk got himself into as he tried a DIY solution at beehive removal.
A monk tried to burn a bees nest with a bamboo stick lit with fire.
The bees didn't quite like that and attacked the monk causing him to flee and drop the bamboo stick.
The fire from the bamboo spread throughout his shrine and left behind it 130 sq meters of ash.
The monk suffered burns but as you can see is still alive.

Be careful with the mosquito coil solution. You may end up driving them somewhere else in the house. Unfortunately, after a while some of the bees will get disoriented and land on the floor. Then when you walk in and step on it, you will get stung. Do let us know if you find a non-toxic way of chasing off the bees. I had to get a pest control company to remove a bee hive from the roof space above my bathroom (but above the ceiling board) and tempting as it was to recover the honeycomb, after they were done it with it was full of malthion.
