Should I try to remove a bee's nest myself?

• <div><p>You should never try to remove a bee's nest yourself because it can be extremely dangerous. The amount of bees that can live in a hive depends on the type of bee, but <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-get-rid-honey-bees.htm">honey bees</a> can have up to 80,000 bees living in a hive. People who are allergic to bees can have life-threatening reactions from a single sting. So, it's best to leave bee nest removal to the professionals who have the knowledge and equipment to do so safely.</p></div>

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: 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.

The guys removed a very old and large walnut tree. They did a fantastic job of removing the tree and the clean-up was better than I could have done myself. The tree was close to the house too and no issues - very professional and know what they are doing. Very fair priced.
