In Pennsylvania, a wide selection of bee species are found around residential properties, and they build nests and hives frequently. Bees, such as bumblebees are the Earth’s pollinators and don’t pose a risk to homeowners. Wasps and yellow jackets are more aggressive and sting homeowners most often. A local service provider offers Bee Removal in Pittsburgh for all bee species.
Complete Removal of Bees
The professional removal team follows the necessary precautions. All bee hives have a queen who reproduces and is protected by worker bees. The pest control team knows the queen must die to prevent further offspring from being born inside the hive. The team uses insecticides to kill off the insects and eliminate all bees around and inside the hive. Well-trained workers remove the entire hive from the property and clean up any debris left behind.
Avoiding Personal Injuries
All workers wear protective gear to prevent stings and other injuries. Their clothing prevents bees from gaining contact with their skin. Facial shields and goggles prevent contact with their face and eyes. Property owners who try to complete the task themselves sustain stings and personal injuries. For homeowners with bee allergies, the outcome is often fatal.
Protecting Endangered Bee Species
Bumblebees are classified as an endangered species and protected under federal laws. The insects build colonies and hives underground. Pest control teams managing the bee removal follow federal laws for relocating the colony or hive to a new habitat.
Preventing New Hives Around the Property
Insect removal services mitigate the risk of new hives by treating areas where the insects build hives more often. Wasps and yellow jackets, for example, create hives near food sources. Wasps feed on nectar and build nests near flowering plants. Yellow jackets eat caterpillars and grubs and prefer underground nests. When treating the property, the team sprays insecticides on the lawn and in sections where the owner plants their flowers.
