ABSOLUTELY NOT!! Never use bumblebee spray or plug an entrance hole of bees or wasp this will only trap many of them inside. If their entrance is plugged or sprayed, the bees or wasps will look for an alternative exit which often results in them entering your home in large numbers through vents, light fixtures, etc. It should also be noted that yellow jackets can and will chew through dry wall (even plaster) from the site of their nest located in the ceiling or wall cavities. It is essential to avoid plugging or spraying into the entrance holes of bees or wasps. If bees or wasp enter your home don’t hesitate to call A1 Bee Specialists ASAP.

Due to the climate in South Eastern Michigan, colonies of yellow jackets, hornets, and bumble bees die in the fall – but before they do, their focus is on the production of new queens, which in many instances can be considerable in number. The queens seek out hibernation sites, and our properties offer them very attractive conditions to over winter. In the spring when you see them inside your home this reflects the queens emerging from hibernation normally from the attic areas of your home. To combat this problem, homeowners can schedule a Gold, Silver or Bronze wasp prevention service to minimize stinging insects from gaining access into your home.

As safe as humanly possible, we wear protective clothing hat, veil, gloves, boots and eye wear however Despite all the precautions, particularly aggressive yellow jackets, hornets and wasps (even bees if riled up!) can still find a weak spot and sting us on occasion!!

When wasp, yellow jacket, and hornet colonies die in the fall, the nest left behind is not reused the following year. (Other scavenging insects such as beetles can inhabit the abandoned nests so it is a good idea to have the abandoned nests removed if they have been constructed inside the property.) However, if this location has proven attractive for nest building during one spring/summer, it is very possibly going to prove attractive to new queens seeking nesting sites during subsequent years. Also note that honey bee colonies can continue to thrive from year to year in the same nest (hive). On occasion, bumble bees can become active in the same area as previously experienced.

This may be a reflection of a nasty experience from earlier in life, usually a sting or stings. Fear of an allergic reaction to venom also worries many people. Additionally, many instances of fear originate as a child due to witnessing adverse reactions from adults to stinging insects.

It’s not you! If a queen finds a suitable location, construction and /or colonization will occur.

Inspect your property carefully and seal/repair cracks, deteriorated caulking, holes, broken vents and screening (to attics) etc. It is not necessary to tear out flowers!

Accidents of this kind are almost always attributable to colonies of yellow jackets nesting underground!! Occasionally, bumble bees may be the culprits. The best way to reduce this type of attack is to REGULARLY check ALL areas of your yard for visible insect ‘traffic’ which is repeatedly visiting the same spot(s), particularly noticeable from July to October. You will see the insects entering and exiting a hole in the ground. DO NOT block it! Always remember that yellow jackets in particular will respond very quickly to vibration, movement, shadow and artificial light. Oh, and they do NOT sleep at night!! To avoid what can become serious attacks it is best to resist all do-it-yourself temptations! ESPECIALLY NO GASOLINE, ETC!!!!
