Bumblebees Can Be a Serious Threat

Although many people think of wasps and hornets as more dangerous than bees, bumblebees can be a life-threatening problem for people with bee allergies. Bees are generally more reluctant to sting than wasps because they lose their stingers and die after attacking, but if sacrificing themselves means protecting the queen and the nest, they will do so. Tree bumblebees, in particular, are aggressive and will patrol the nest and attack if it is disturbed, even by something seemingly innocuous and shutting a door.

Tree BumbleBee

Relatively new in Britain, tree bumblebees are native to mainland Europe and have a distinctive ginger colouration instead of yellow stripes. They are responsible for the increase in bumblebee problems that many beekeeper's associations and pest control companies have noticed in recent years - this species likes to nest above ground in trees and in or around houses, sheds and other structures that people use. This brings them into closer contact with people and combined with their aggressive temperament makes them more likely to sting.

BumbleBees Cause Problems for Homeowners

Bumblebees, especially tree bumble bees, will nest in any sheltered area they can get into that is about the right size. Often this means the interior space in a wall, an attic or any other opening to the outside of the house. Ventilation holes can become completely clogged with bees and their hives, creating a fire hazard and affecting air quality indoors. Colonies can make a fair bit of noise, causing sleep disruption and general irritation.

Bumblebee Nest Removal in Wigan should be left to the Professionals

Having bees around means a risk of being stung, and a lot of irritation, but handling a bumblebee nest involves these same risks and more. Avoid the risk of falling off a ladder, reacting to insecticide sprays, triggering a swarm or just failing to get the job done right the first time, and call the professionals.
