Will bees go away on their own?

• <div><p>In certain cases, yes, the bees may go away on their own, but it’s a risk. Some bee types, such as bumblebees, create seasonal nests and then die out as their new queens seek homes elsewhere. But in most cases, you can’t count on the bees leaving naturally. It’s also not a great idea to leave openings in your walls any longer than you have to, which can attract other pests or cause moisture damage.</p></div>

Q: Do honey bees sting?

• <div><p>Yes, honey bees can sting, but they typically only do it when they feel their hive is threatened. When honey bees are away from their hive, they&rsquo;re focused on foraging for pollen and nectar, making them unlikely to sting. Only female honey bees, called workers, have stingers, and they will die if they need to use them. Generally, if left undisturbed, honey bees will leave you alone.</p></div>

Q: Can hiring a pro ensure safe bee removal practices?

• <div><p>Yes, they apply humane techniques, prioritizing environmental balance while addressing bee concerns.</p></div>

Q: How many times can a human be stung by a yellow jacket?

• <div><p>Whereas a honeybee can only sting you once, a yellow jacket can sting you multiple times because they don&rsquo;t leave stingers in the skin. In the unfortunate case that you get stung by a yellow jacket, it&rsquo;s important to react calmly and quickly. Immediately ice the affected area until the swelling subsides. You may also take an antihistamine if necessary. If you experience an allergic reaction to a yellow jacket sting or have been stung several times, seek medical care right away. </p></div>

Q: Are there certain times of the year when bee removal is more effective?

• <div><p>Early spring or late fall removals are ideal when bees are less active, and hive removal is safer.</p></div>

Locally owned, efficient, and professional. The price for the job was very reasonable and he really paid attention to removing not only the stump to below grade, but he also followed the larger roots near the stump & ground them too.

They removed a 1/2" natural gas line that ran up through my kitchen (exposed, not in a wall) and into the attic for the furnace. They capped the line under the house and left the furnace line ready to accept a new natural gas line that they had run up into the attic on a previous service call.
