Bee Removal Guide
As a reliable pest control company, we get a lot of calls regarding bee infestations and bee removal but many people don’t know what bees they have at their property. That is the first step to knowing how to treat them and how to remove them safely. With this information, you can decide what the best next step is for you to remove them from your property.
Bumble bees
Bumble bees are just out to pollinate. They very rarely sting you or turn aggressive and they will not swarm like honey bees. Bumble bees will make their nests in various places:
- Old pipe holes in your facias
- Holes in brick work
- Under sheds
- Gutters
- Roof spaces
It is worth noting that bumbles bees do not make honey or have a very large nest.
Miner Bees
Miner bees will create lots of holes in your lawn or flower bed. They never sting - they are normally a inconvenience rather than a pest. We cannot treat miner bees.
Honey bees
Honey bees are the main stars of the bee world, however they can make their home in places that are used heavily by us humans.
The first signs of honey bees at your property will more than likely be a swarm. Now, most swarms will not take up residency and will move on when the weather cools down. However, if a swarm hasn’t left within 48 hours then the chances are they are happy and won’t leave without some intervention.
At Force 10, we will always try to relocate honey bees however if there are a large number of bees, there can be some significant costs involved. There is usually some form of access equipment required i.e scaffolding or cherry picker which we can supply. Honey bees love chimneys, cavity walls via air bricks and roof spaces. Honey bees will swarm and they will also not leave they will hibernate over the winter and then come back again in spring. It is best to call upon a qualified professional to handle the bees and remove them from your property for good. We can help in all bee removal instances - give us a call on 0800 0418 405 and we will be happy to help.
Rats can cause great distress once seen in a property or in a garden. Rats can cause damage to electrics, plastic water pipes and to house hold items. We offer fast and effective rat control.
Wasps start build nests around March or April (depending on the weather) chewing wood from fences, eaves and sheds to make the nest.
Seagulls are protected by law so culling them at present is not allowed. If seagulls are nesting or have nested at your property they will return.
