Bees are important species in the ecosystem. Bees are the best pollinators and lately they are gradually becoming extinct, something worth worrying about. Most people would freak out when they notice a nest of bees in their compound and the knee jerk reaction would be to get rid of them. For starters, bees do not attack unless provoked. Before you take any action, talk to a Tucson Bee Removal treatment professional and get advice on how to deal with the matter at hand. Below are a few facts about the commonest bee species and how you can control them.
Honey Bees
This bee species provides sweet honey, and if disturbed, can defend themselves with the most painful sting. The most dangerous is the African honeybees which are also referred to as the killer bees. If you notice a nest of these bees, it is best that you contact a professional honey keeper to take care of them instead of killing them. The most common method used is to smoke out the bees so that they become docile. This is done early in the morning or in the evening when they are leaving or coming back to their hive. After smoking them out, they are transferred to a place where they will be used for commercial purpose.
Bumble Bees
Bumble bees are fluffy and feed on pollen and nectar and do not produce honey. They are not aggressive as compared to honeybees. Only queen bees and the female worker bees have a sting. They can build their nests in flowerpots, rodent holes or chimneys. Some people spray bee insecticide to get rid of them, but you are advised to seek out the proper control methods on how they might be transferred without destroying them because they only last a season and depend on their next queen bee offspring.
Carpenter Bees
They mostly bore holes in furniture and wooden structures. They are not as harmful and the best way to avoid them is through treating your wood with organic insect repellant or use almond oil in and around the drilled hole.
