It’s not uncommon to occasionally see a single bee near your home. However, if you begin to notice multiple bees or even a swarm, there is a good chance the hive is located somewhere near or in your home. Professional bee removal in Nassau County is the best way to get an infestation under control.
Identification
Only a professional pest service can correctly identify the type of bees that are nesting around your home. There are over 20,000 of species of bees, including honeybees and bumblebees. Certain bees may pose a greater risk to your family than others.
In some instances, a pest control expert may determine that the bees are, in fact, wasps or hornets. Unlike bees, these insects are simply a nuisance. They do not pollinate flowers for food. Instead, they kill other insects. However, they can be aggressive, and a sting from a wasp or hornet can be very painful.
Safety
While most bees only sting when they feel threatened, a single sting may be dangerous. Bee venom allergies are very common, and a sting can quickly turn deadly. Both humans and family pets may develop a bee allergy. If a hive is suspected in your home, it needs to be professionally removed right away.
A pest control expert will bring the proper equipment to safely remove the entire hive. Once the hive is gone, any loose bees will search for another home. Your family will no longer have to worry about being stung by bees in the house.
Protection
Even though most people don’t care for bees, they are an essential part of the ecosystem. Bees are responsible for pollinating crops. Without bees, humans would not be able to grow enough food to sustain life. Unfortunately, bees are dying at an alarming rate.
Professional bee removal in Nassau County usually involves relocating the live hive to another area. This is often done without killing the bees. Many pest control experts remove entire hives without using any chemicals or pesticides.
Bees have no business living in your home. If a hive is active on your property, have it removed by a local pest control service. Browse our website to see the other benefits of regular pest control.
