DO IT YOURSELF BEE, WASP & HORNET NEST REMOVAL
Honey bee swarms are made up of tens of thousands of bees, and an established honey bee hive may contain 80,000 to 120,000 bees. Wasp and hornet nests contain hundreds to thousands of stinging flying insects. When threatened, bee, wasp, and hornet colonies can pose an imminent danger to humans. Bee, wasp, and hornet stings can be lethal to those who are allergic to their venom. Honey bee hives can be very heavy and cause structural damage to your Long Island residence. These factors make it very dangerous and challenging to get rid of the bees, wasps, and hornets on your own. Getting rid of bees, wasps, and hornets requires special equipment and expertise to be accomplished correctly.
IGNORING THE BEE, WASP, OR HORNET PROBLEM
While it might seem like the most effortless strategy, ignoring the problem is never a good idea. Beehives, wasps, and hornet nests will continue to grow, and the stinging flying insects that inhabit them will increase in numbers. Honey, beeswax and the honey bees themselves can put a great deal of pressure on your Long Island home's beams, pipes, and walls, resulting in damage that could put your family at risk.
SEALING UP THE BEES OR WASPS ENTRY POINT
Sealing up the point in your home through which bees or wasps are entering might seem like the right thing to do. However, the beehive or wasp nest is located somewhere in your home, so sealing up their access point only serves to seal the unwanted insects into your home. If you observe bees or yellowjacket wasps entering your home through a crack in the brickwork or a hole in the siding, do not seal up the opening. While you initially may see less activity, the bees or wasps are still alive and well inside your home. Insects are attracted to light, so the bees or wasps that are trapped inside the walls of your home will eventually find their way into your living space. Yellowjacket wasps can chew through sheetrock resulting in even more damage to your residence.
USING SOAP, WATER, OR STORE-PURCHASED INSECTICIDES
Using soap, water, or insecticides that you purchased at the local hardware store will not eliminate bees or wasps nesting in your home. Using soap and water may damage your home and will undoubtedly make the situation worse. The store-purchased insecticide is a contact pyrethrin that will only kill the insect that it is sprayed on. Following the application of a contact pyrethrin, the insecticide quickly becomes inert. Therefore, this insecticide will have no impact on the bees or wasps nesting inside your home. This situation usually necessitates the use of restricted-use pesticides that can only be purchased and applied by licensed New York State pesticide applicators.
