trap it with a glass, slide an envelope or sturdy paper under the mouth of the glass and evacuate to the outside. works for all sorts of bugs.

And bumping into things.

I left the door open and turned off the lights and it flew out I think. I don't hear it anymore.

Ignore it and it will ignore you...let mom deal with it when she returns. That's what moms do. I would hate to find out the hard way that one of you is allergic to bee sittings...
