WASPS AND BEES

We provide treatments for all pests using the safest methods.
Bees are social insects and are divided into three castes. Most people see the ``workers``, but seldom the much larger ``queen`` bees. Males are known as ``drones`` and all bees have a characteristic tongue like devide that helps them reach the nectar in flowers.
Bees differ from wasps in providing pollen and honey for their young, while wasps collect insect larvae, meat scraps and even fish to feed their offspring. This diet means wasps are responsible for a lot of biological control of insect pests like caterpillars.
Bees and Wasps are most active in the warmer summer months, the time when humans can suffer from stings. Bee stings are annoying and painful for most, while a small percentage are severely allergic to bee stings to the point of being life threatening. Wasps are generally more aggressive when disturbed with a multiple stinging behaviour that is of greater concern. Unlike bees, the wasp sting can be withdrawn from the victim.
