It reminds me of "The Martian Chronicles", where the Martian weapons fired golden bees. Before firing, the gun made the buzzing sound of angry bees.
There was also a movie a few years back about an amateur crime figther who used small jars of bees, or wasps as a weapon. He would shake the jar to anger the bees/wasps, then throw the jar at the feet of his target to break the jar. This would cause the bees/wasps to go after the person.
