The reason the earth is green and that we have food on our plates is because of bees. You and your family may, however, experience bites if you have an unwanted hive on your property. Anyone allergic to bees could die from a sting that is harmless to you.
It is not an effective strategy to get rid of bees on your own unless you are a beekeeper. These buzzy insects come in groups of thousands and attack inside a hive. To avoid accidents or visits to the ER, make sure you hire experts from Pointe Pest Control Services for the task.
How to remove bees from your garden effectively with the help of pest control services
Different elimination methods will be required for different types of bees. The following are a few of the common ones that often appear in and around homes or even business buildings:
-
Honeybees
The hives of honeybees are challenging to find as they tunnel into walls and build them. Expert bee removers eliminate the colony with special tools and then locate the core hive by hearing a gentle buzzing sound. The colony is located in the wall or area where the buzzing is loudest and feels warm to the touch.
-
Carpenter bees
These are lonely bees, yet they reproduce heavily. The term “carpenter bee” comes from their native environment of wood, such as your deck, fascia, eaves, and barn. You could have carpenter bees in your house if you observe anything with little holes in them and an accumulation of sawdust.
-
Bumble bees
The common bumblebee, like carpenter bees, can be dangerous in large numbers. These bees live underground or behind rocks, where they have protection from predators, compared to their relatives who live in forests.
How Pest Control Companies remove Bees
Expert bee removers are not heartless. They eliminate bees gently, preventing them only. Some make the area welcoming for the insects by dusting carbaryl or diazinon powder near hives or colonies or by using pesticides carefully.
Eliminating bees that form colonies behind walls, like honey bees, can be difficult. To get entry to the hive, the wall in front of it needs to be taken down. Waiting and doing the task yourself might do more harm than good. Honeybees reproduce quickly and collect honey. A colony could build up over 100 pounds of it, and pounds of beeswax combs inside your walls over time.
Although some bee removers kill insects with chemicals, this is a pointless method. The bees will land in an enormous mound, which will eventually disintegrate and smell bad. The liquid generated by the mass of dying bees has an opportunity to penetrate your walls and require costly fixes.
It is more difficult to get rid of an established colony than a freshly established one. The cells that hold the sugar in place can get damaged by unattended honey reserves that ferment and produce gas. In that case, your drywall may penetrate the sticky honey.
Bees are eliminated without injury by skilled and compassionate bee removers. They find the colony by beating it with a little hammer within the walls as their first action. Some even go above and above by finding the colony using a stethoscope, while others locate it by inserting a tiny wire through the wall.
