Research has shown that just getting outside can have enormous psychological benefits. The feeling of the sun on the skin and the sound of the breeze in the trees, as well as the smell of grass and flowers, can help to reduce stress levels – and who doesn’t need that? With the advent of summer, it’s time to take full advantage of the outdoor opportunities – and this includes the company of friends and family in the yard. But, summer also means bees – and sometimes that can mean trouble.
Almost everyone likes bees. Even those who are allergic to stings enjoy the gentle buzzing as these wonderful insects go about their daily business – and who doesn’t like some honey on their pancakes? But when bees swarm in search of a new place to locate their hive our yards exert a siren call – and that can spell danger for family, friends (especially the children), and pets.
Taking a look at the behavior of bee colonies quickly reveals why professional bee hive removal is so important.
Bees may be one of nature’s marvels – but disturbing a hive is a way to flirt with an extended stay in an emergency ward, or worse. In probability the bees that you see will be Honeybees. These can be dangerous when disturbed – they will attack anyone in the vicinity of the disturbance in an effort to protect their hive and their Queen. The hive becomes even more of a threat if it has been constructed by Killer Bees. These bees arrived in the U.S. from Mexico in 1990. They are hybrids of African bees and European Honeybees, bred to increase honey output. The result was a species of bee that is responsible for many deaths. They will chase down anyone who disturbs their nest and attack unceasingly until the threat has been eliminated – and that behavior can lead to death.
However, using a professional bee hive removal company will ensure that you and those nearest and dearest will remain safe. Bee hive removal is not a task that falls into the ‘DIY’ category – it can simply ‘bee’ too dangerous.
Professional bee and pest control companies have the right equipment to ensure that problem bees are removed from your property quickly and efficiently – and at a reasonable cost. Skilled removal can mean that Honeybees, in particular, can safely and comfortably be relocated to the premises of a concern that raises bees for honey.
By seeking out a professional bee removal company that employs an eco-friendly approach the homeowner not only spares the bees but also ensures that honey supplies remain constant – and even more importantly that bees can go about their essential business of pollination, ensuring that we can continue to enjoy wonderful fields of wildflowers – and that our yards look great – just right for summer.
If you discover an unwanted hive on your premises then give the professionals a call, it’s simply the right thing to do.
