Bee problems are a regular concern for homes and businesses throughout Boise, Idaho. The city’s river corridor, foothill vegetation, and irrigated landscaping attract a wide range of stinging insects, including honey bees, bumble bees, wasps, and yellowjackets.
Although many people refer to all stinging insects as “bees,” there are important differences between these species. Honey bees are generally calm and play a critical role in pollination, while wasps, hornets, and yellowjackets are more defensive and often build nests in or on structures. Correct identification is essential, which is why professional stinging insect removal is recommended when activity becomes a concern.
When honey bees establish a hive in a wall, attic, or roofline, Pestcom works to relocate the colony whenever possible. This protects beneficial pollinators while also removing the risk to people. More aggressive insects, however, typically require direct treatment when nests are close to living or work areas.
