How To Identify A Bee Infestation

Bees and wasps can be mistaken for one another, as both can sting. Wasps, however, are more aggressive while bees commonly only sting when provoked. Knowing the difference between a bee and a wasp is important for treating a sting, as well as taking care of the wasp or bee problem. Bees are usually black-bodied or sometimes have brown or orange or yellow striations. Bees are also hairy, while wasps usually have smooth and shiny skin. Another way to tell the difference is: a bee will have little or no “waist”, while a wasp can have a narrower “pinched” waist. If after reading this you’ve decided you don’t have bees, learn more about our wasp control by calling us.

Bees are social and live in large colonies with a single queen. Bees will swarm when virgin female bees leave the nest to form a new colony elsewhere or when disturbed and in defense of the colony.

Why You Might Have Bees

Like humans, bees want a safe and secure place to call home in close proximity to a good food source. Sometimes this can mean in the siding of your house or in or around a tree on your property.

Reasons To Treat Your Bee Problem Immediately

Bees can sting and will swarm when disturbed. Even one sting can be enough to send a person with an allergy into anaphylactic shock. While bees are beneficial to the environment in many ways, they can be inconvenient or even dangerous if they locate their hive close to your home or living area.

When using any method of bee control it is necessary to know effective application strategies as well as the limitations and dangers associated with each method.

The only way to really get rid of bees is to remove the hive completely. This task is best suited for a trained professional for safety and efficiency reasons.

We will treat and monitor your home twice a year.  You can also opt for a one time treatment. Our bee control in Massachusetts treatment will consist of an initial inspection of your home or business to determine pest activity problems. A treatment will be applied to specific areas where bee activity is present to control pest activity. If the problem returns, we will treat the problem at no extra cost.

This program can be combined with our Ant Program for extra savings.
