The spring and the summer months are a big time of year for pests. There are many pests that start to invade during these warmer months. They tend to need the warm air as well as the plants and food that are more abundant in these months as well. You need to be prepared for the types of pests that are about to start invading your space. One of the pests that can be a problem during hot Southern California summers are bees. They love the warm weather and will start to look for a space to create their hive. The hive is the nucleus of the colony and where the queen will spend her time. The hive is not the problem but the amount of bees that can be swarming around it can be hard to handle. The problem is that bees are very important for the world and should be treated and handled with care. Animal Pest Management outlines what you need to know about dealing with a bee hive on your property.
How Far is the Beehive from Your House?
Some people start to notice that they are seeing bees flying around their home and their yard. This can be a sign that there is a bee hive near your home or even on your property. If you start to see bees around your house you should try and find out where they are coming from. You can wait to see where they are at and if you can locate where the hive is. If you see that the hive is on your property you want to make sure that you know what to do about it.
What to Do if You Find a Bee Hive or Nest
If you see that there is a bee hive on your property you need to use caution. You want to make sure that you are careful about how you act around the bees and the hive. You want to stay away from the hive and do not do anything that will agitate it. If the hive is in a space that it can be left alone and allow the bees to do what they need to do you can leave it there. If the hive is not bothered the bees will likely not react to anyone. There are times that the hive cannot be left and needs to be removed. You do not want to remove the hive on your own and you want to make sure that you do not take any action that could damage the hive. This means stay away from swatting it or spraying it with water.
Who Can You Call for Bee Hive & Swarm Removal?
You want to make sure that you call out a professional that can come out and remove the hive in a safe manner. The hive should be moved along with the bees to a safe space that they can continue to pollinate the plants. The hive should not be damaged or the bees killed so it is a good idea to allow a professional to take care of the problem so that you can get back to enjoy your summer!
