Safe & Professional Bee Removal Services

Bees, wasps, and hornets are distinct insects in the order Hymenoptera. Bees are small, hairy, and gentle pollinators; wasps have slender waists, smooth bodies, and can sting repeatedly; hornets are the largest, most aggressive, and build paper nests. Bees die after one sting, while wasps and hornets can sting multiple times. When you need bee, wasp, or hornet removal services, contact Bro’s Pest Control.

Bees may build hives in:

  • Wall voids
  • Attics
  • Chimneys
  • Roof eaves
  • Trees and shrubs
  • Sheds and outbuildings

While bees are beneficial pollinators, a hive inside your home or near high-traffic areas can pose a risk. Attempting DIY removal can provoke the colony and lead to multiple stings.

Professional bee removal specialists can:

  • Identify the species (honey bees, carpenter bees, etc.)
  • Locate hidden nests
  • Safely remove or relocate colonies when possible
  • Clean and treat affected areas
  • Help prevent future infestations
What Are Wasps?

A wasp is a type of insect belonging to the order Hymenoptera. Unlike bees and ants, wasps typically have slender bodies, smooth stingers, and can sting multiple times.

The most commonly encountered wasps include:

  • Yellow jackets
  • Hornets
  • Paper wasps

Many of these species belong to the Vespidae family and are eusocial, meaning they live together in colonies with a queen and worker wasps. These nests are often found:

  • Under the roof eaves
  • Inside attics
  • In wall voids
  • In trees or shrubs
  • Underground

While some wasp species are solitary and help control other insect populations, social wasps can become highly defensive and aggressive if their nest is disturbed.

Bees vs. Hornets: Understanding the Difference

Bees are often confused with hornets and other wasps. Hornets are a type of large social wasp that can be more aggressive and may build large paper nests in trees, shrubs, or even wall cavities. Unlike bees, hornets can sting multiple times and tend to defend their nests aggressively.

Proper identification is critical to ensure the right removal method is used. Whether you’re dealing with bees, hornets, or another stinging insect, professional inspection is the safest first step.
