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: Do bees come back after removal?

• <div><p>Some bees may return after the nest is removed. These are called &quot;straggler&quot; bees, and it may take them a couple of weeks before they leave. The reason is the nest may have been removed while the bees were away. These bees don't typically survive long once the nest is gone, so you may want to contact a beekeeper to help relocate them elsewhere.</p></div>

Q: What steps are taken post-removal to prevent future issues?

• <div><p>Ensure proper ventilation, address leaks, and conduct regular inspections.</p></div>
