Bee removal solutions

When removing bee colonies, the approach depends on factors like nest size, location, and bee type. That's why consulting with a professional like Terminix for bee control solutions is crucial. Removing bees without the proper training and equipment can be risky and lead to painful stings. Depending on the species and level of infestation, we may recommend various bee removal techniques. The goal is to remove the bees without causing harm to the environment or the bees themselves. Terminix’s expert technicians ensure a safe and effective bee removal process for your property.

How to get rid of bees

When dealing with a potentially hazardous infestation, attempting DIY bee removal solutions, such as DIY bee spray, can be challenging and often ineffective. Most individuals lack the appropriate clothing or equipment to manage bees independently, making it advisable to avoid disturbing the hive and instead enlist the assistance of a professional. Identifying the bee species and implementing effective pest control measures for bees is a task best left to a Terminix technician. Recognizing bees' crucial role in maintaining our environment, we emphasize the importance of professional bee removal to reduce potential risks. By choosing Terminix and learning how to get rid of bees correctly, you safeguard your home and contribute to preserving these vital pollinators.

Steps for bee removal

Step 1 - Call a bee expert

A trained Terminix technician will inspect your property for bee infestations and identify the bee species that are present. The bee species could include honey bees, bumble bees, or carpenter bees. Different bee species require different treatment and removal methods.

Step 2 - Remove bees safely

Once the bee species has been identified, your technician will devise a plan to remove the bees safely. If honey bees are present, it may be recommended that a local beekeeper come to your property to relocate the bees. If a beekeeper is unnecessary, your technician will find the hive(s) and perform the proper treatment method.

Step 3 - Inspect for bees

After your bee removal treatment, it is best to utilize prevention methods to avoid a future infestation. Your technician can point out potential entry points that must be closed off. You can prevent pests year-round with Terminix’s Quarterly Pest Control service!

Removing a beehive

Bee nest removal is not a DIY project; attempting it can be dangerous. You should never try to remove the nest on your own, as there may be more bees nesting elsewhere. Bee nest removal may seem easy, but a professional bee exterminator best assesses the severity of the problem.

It is important to note that honey bees living in wall voids should not be sealed inside the wall cavity. While some homeowners may try to caulk exit holes on exterior walls, the bees can find alternative routes, often emerging through the home's interior drywall. Also, leaving a hive with honey inside a wall can lead to decay and mold, and it could attract additional pests.

Terminix’s highly trained technicians are equipped to treat various bee hives and nests safely. Once the stinging insect is identified, treatment options will be discussed, including consultation with a beekeeper or eliminating a nest posing health risks. Our technicians use the proper tools and wear protective suits to ensure the safety of everyone involved. If you have bee nests on your property and need them removed, contact Terminix for a thorough inspection and safe removal process.
