Key Signs You Need Professional Bee & Wasp Control

While bees and wasps are a natural part of the ecosystem, their presence can pose a serious safety risk when they build nests too close to your home. In a city like Columbia, with its long, warm seasons, these stinging insects can quickly become a problem. Recognizing the signs of an infestation early is crucial for preventing stings and protecting your family, especially those with allergies.

• Visible Nests: The most obvious sign is a visible nest. Wasps and hornets build papery, grayish nests that can be found in a variety of places, including under roof eaves, on porch ceilings, inside sheds, or in trees. Bees, particularly carpenter bees, will bore perfectly round holes into wooden structures like decks, fences, and siding.
• Increased Activity: If you notice a high volume of bees or wasps flying around a specific area of your home, it's a strong sign that a nest is nearby. This is especially true if you see a constant stream of insects entering and exiting a small hole in a wall, a crack in your foundation, or a tree trunk.
• Unusual Sounds: A persistent buzzing or scratching noise coming from your walls or ceiling can be a sign that a nest has been built in an interior void. As the colony grows, the noise can become louder and more frequent, indicating a serious infestation. For honey bees, a dark, dripping stain on a wall or ceiling can also be a sign of a hive filled with honey.
• Damage to Wood: If you see small, perfectly round holes in unpainted wood surfaces, it is likely a sign of carpenter bees. While they do not eat the wood, they tunnel into it to build nests, which can cause significant structural damage over time if not addressed.

If you notice any of these warning signs, it is important to act quickly and call a professional. Do not attempt to remove the nest yourself, as this can provoke the bees or wasps and lead to a painful and dangerous attack. Professional bee and wasp control experts have the right equipment and knowledge to handle the situation safely and effectively. Don't hesitate to call the experts when it comes to bee removal Columbia residents rely on.
