Q: What time of year are bees most likely to swarm?

• <div><p>Honey bees are most likely to swarm during spring and early summer, typically from April through June, as colonies expand and prepare for new growth. Swarming occurs when a hive becomes overcrowded, prompting the queen and a group of worker bees to leave in search of a new nesting site. During this time, you may notice a temporary increase in bee activity around your property.</p></div>

Q: Should I hire an animal removal specialist instead of calling my local municipality?

• <div><p>You might be tempted to call your local municipality to remove animals from your property, such as a groundhog burrowing in your yard or raccoons getting into your trash cans. However, they typically only remove domestic animals like dogs and cats from properties, or sick and injured wildlife that pose a public safety risk or health threat, such as a rabid animal. They typically do not capture or remove healthy wildlife.</p><p>Animal removal professionals have the tools, knowledge, and skills to trap and remove wild animals adequately and humanely. They also can relocate them correctly.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if I have a bee infestation?

• <div><p>Look for consistent buzzing sounds, visible hives, or increased bee activity around your property.</p></div>

Q: What happens if you seal bees in a wall?

• <div><p>If you seal bees in a wall and don&rsquo;t leave them any way to escape, they may make one of their own. Otherwise, they&rsquo;ll die inside the wall, and that creates many additional problems. It takes a long time, and the bees will start rotting, which can make your home smell miserable. All the dead bees and any honeycombs they may have created will also attract a number of bugs or other pests to your home. That&rsquo;s why we suggest removing the bees entirely, and not trying to seal them away.</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>

It was just one person, and she was fine. She did what she said she was going to do and took care of the animal. She did everything I asked her to do including bringing in the paper and the mail. I had no complications. I would rate her highly and would use her again in the future if necessary.
