Honey bees show up in the darndest places! I’ve taken them out of barbecues, hot tubs, compost bins, just to name a few. I prefer to work with honey bees in the early morning when they are not active, and neighbors are still asleep. The fewer people in the area the better. And this way the worker bees havent left yet and wont be left behind when I take the swarm. Ive got to get the bees, the honey and the larva to avoid another swarm from moving in after I leave, because the honey will attract ants and other pests, and honey robbers from another colony.
The best things you can do to avoid a honey bee colony from taking up residence in your home, is to pay special attn. to the following areas, as most of my jobs involve removing them from homes with minor defects.
Half of them are entering through the vent holes at the top of the wall just below the roof line. Because of the size of the mesh on the screen being 1/4 inch, a bee can easily get in. Change it to 1/8 inch galvanized hardware cloth.
Be sure ANY cracks in stucco are repaired. Home maintanance is a very important step in being pro active, especially when dealing with honey bees.
Keep chimney flues closed, and be sure you have a chimney cap.
Check hot tubs for ANY open gaps arround the outside, and seal them with silicone.
These are 90% of the defects bees use to form a hive, and I hope it will help you stop it before it starts. Honey bees can produce 1000 young each day, and 100 pounds of honey each year! so its best to do something about it right away if the bees are inside already.
Now lets talk about safety.
Many strains of honey bees will agressively defend the hive! It can get ugly real fast, so lets talk about some DON’T DOs
Don’t be in a hurry when taking compost to the bin. The heat produced by rotting vegitation makes it a suitable environment for them. Watch for bees entering and leaving, and if they are - don’t open it.
Don’t light a fire to get them out of the chimney. They could become confused and start stinging everything for a block round! Not to mention the dripping wax could become a fire hazard inside the home.
Don’t use commersial sprays to kill the bees. They will kill a few that the spray comes in contact with, but the real problem is inside, where the spray wont reach.Once again the remaining majority will attack everything out of confusion.
Don’t forget to educate your neighbors about honey bees. If they have a hive, and they continue populating beyond the capacity of the space, the hive will split and choose a near by tree, barbecue, or home.
We also offer a live honey bee trapping program to get the bees to choose one of our containers instead of the house you live in.Removing them in this manner is by far more economical than removing them from the attic or walls of your home.
I hope these tips were helpfull to you and that you will share them with a friend or neighbor.
If things get beyond your control, you can always call 800-714-8727 for a bee keeper to assist.
