Bee and Wasp Removal by Attic Solutions

Aug. 14, 2013 - PRLog --                 We are now approaching the end of the summer and the late summer months are still an active time for wasps and bees.  Most wasps and bees are actually beneficial for pollination and eliminating plant-eating insects but they can become a nuisance and even a threat if their nests are built too close to a home or building.  They defend their nests aggressively and tend to sting humans when their nests are threatened.  Homeowners who are concerned about the location of a bee or wasp nest on their property should call Attic Solutions (http://www.attic-solutions.com/) to address the problem.  The trained wildlife professionals of Attic Solutions can remove bee and wasp nests in a safe and effective manner.

                It is important to be able to identify a bee or wasp (http://www.attic-solutions.com/bees.php) nest when assessing the threat that they pose to a home and its occupants.  Wasps make their nests by mixing their saliva with chewed wood fragments to create a paper-like material but the shape and location of the nest may depend on the type of wasp.  Yellow jackets tend to build ground nests in tree bases and under porches but can also build low aerial nests in trees, bushes, or buildings.  Paper wasps build nests under eaves and ledges that are shaped like umbrellas while hornets’ nests have a unique tear drop shape and are usually built in high places such as trees and buildings.  Hornets defend their nests more aggressively than other wasps and should be approached with more caution. 

                Despite popular belief, bees and wasps are only a threat to sting humans if their nests are threatened or while they are scavenging for food.  However, when wasps become aggressive, their stings can be harmful and quite hazardous with the ability to sting multiple times and cause pain and swelling.  Wasp stings are especially dangerous to those that are allergic to bees and suffering multiple bee stings can be harmful to those that are not allergic as well because wasp venom can damage red blood cells.  If the location of a bee or wasp nest continuously puts those of a home at risk for stings, then the nest should be removed by Attic Solutions.

 

                Staying clear of a bee or wasp colony is the best way to avoid the threat of getting stung but in some cases, the location of the nest makes this very difficult.  Attic Solutions can remove any bee or wasp nest regardless of the size of the colony without compromising the safety of the residents of the home.  Contact Attic Solutions (http://www.attic-solutions.com/contact.php) to remove a bee or wasp infestation and eliminate the threat that they pose.
