Killer bees have reportedly killed a man in Central Texas and injured another woman who tried to help the helpless man.

Larry Goodwin was attacked by a hive of Africanized bees while he was driving a tractor in Moody on Saturday.

Good tried to escape the bees and ran to a nearby house to try and use a garden hose to stop the bees from attacking. A woman who had come out of the house to help the man was also stung.

Goodman was pronounced dead on the scene, according to AP.

The hive was owned by Allen Miller, the owner of the Bee Be Gone. After the death of the man, he destroyed the hive. He said that Goodwin had hit a pile of wood that had housed the hive, which contained around 40,000 bees.

Last month, a couple in Provo, Utah, found a colony of 40,000 bees were living in their bedroom walls.

Tyler Judd and his wife had only moved into their new home five months ago when they noticed bees outside of their home. One evening, they heard the sound of buzzing inside the walls.

"We were just sitting on our couch, turned off the TV and could hear some buzzing in the walls," Judd told KSL.

When they finally called in a beekeeper on Friday, they did not expect to hear that 40,000 bees were living in the walls of their bedroom.

According to beekeeper Al Chubak, the bees have been living in the property for three to four years and as a result, removing some insulation from within the walls to colonize the area. "They're actually taking the insulation out and they're putting their honeycomb and their hive in its place," Judd told the TV station.

The bees were removed the next day. Chubak put the honeycomb into boxes to relocate the bees, which were removed with a shopvac. The entire had to be removed to prevent them the bees from moving back in.

"The funny thing with hives is the ones that beekeepers have in their boxes seem to be dying across the county, all over 60 percent since last fall. Yet the ones in homes are doing fantastic," Chubak said to KSL.

An exterminator reportedly tried to kill the bees five years ago, to no avail.
