When to Call in a Bee Exterminator

With all the news about the “Killer Bee” invasion, people have developed a fear of bees. But seeing bees in your yard doesn’t mean you should call in a bee exterminator right away. Finding bees flying around your yard is not a reason to panic and call in an exterminator. You see bees travel long distances to find food. If you see some around, you can bet their nest is probably a long way away and there is little need to worry. But you should still keep an eye on the situation because those bees may be a scouting party looking for a place for their hive to live. If you see bees clustering close to your home, beware. They may be looking for a place to live for their 60,000 to 80,000 friends. They will usually select a dark, cavernous place to set up housekeeping. If they find a crack or gap they can get through that leads to an open space they may move right in. Once they get in they will establish a permanent colony. If you see bees flying in and out of a hole in a wall or under eaves of you home it’s time to call in an expert to exterminator.
