Honey Bee Importance in Hawaii
Honey bees are of great importance to the ecosystem we live in as well as an important economic industry in Hawaii. The honey bees have enough to worry about with mites and other environmental factors without undue harm from humans.
This is why at Kilauea, we take a green approach to our pest control and termite services as well as the control of honey bees. We make every effort to exhaust all other avenues in the treatment of honey bees before we use pesticides. For the most part, we will recommend a variety of Beekeepers on Oahu to physically remove bees nests from wall voids or interior spaces such as attics or crawl spaces.
Honey Bee Identification
Honey bee colonies consist of one queen with hundreds of males and up to 60,000+ worker bees to support the colony maintenance and growth. Sometimes, a bee colony will be attracted to a certain part of your home or yard, but may only stay there for a day or two and then move on. It is important to not throw anything at the hive or spray pesticides to a wandering colony as it can both kill bees and contaminate unknown honey production.
Honey Bee Danger
Of course, honey bees do sting, and some people have allergic reactions to bee stings which can be life threatening. When bee removal from a beekeeper has failed, we can treat bees in enclosed spaces, especially when there is property damage and danger to humans and family pets are concerned.
