At Bee Busters, we often encounter myths about bee removal and relocation. From impractical DIY methods to misconceptions about the threats these insects impose, there’s an array of misleading information out there.
Myth #1: All Bees are Aggressive
Contrarily to common belief, not all bees are aggressive by nature. Yes, they have the ability to sting when threatened, but most bees prefer going about their business undisturbed. Certain breeds of bees, like the honey bee, are even known to be particularly gentle.
Myth #2: It’s Safe to Remove Bees Yourself
While you may come across various DIY tips online for bee removal, it’s essential to understand the risks associated. Without the correct training, protective clothing, and equipment, an attempt to remove bees can result in serious stings or allergic reactions. Always rely on experts for safe and effective bee removal or relocation.
Myth #3: All Bees Should be Exterminated
Although bees can present a threat when they nest near human habitation, not all breeds need to be eliminated. Thanks to our unique relationship with the environment, Bee Busters promotes bee conservation – capturing and relocating bees, instead of exterminating them.
Myth #4: Bees and Wasps are the Same
This is definitely one of the most common misconceptions. Although these two groups of insects may look similar and even possess similar behaviors, they are two distinct groups. Wasps tend to be more aggressive and, unlike bees, are not essential pollinators.
