Kirkby Honey Bee Nest Removal and Control Options
The Queen as Nest Builder
In a honey bee colony, it is the Queen who is both founder and builder. Queens who have mated the previous summer hibernate in soil and emerge in spring, looking for a suitable place to build a hive. Once found, the Queen will lay eggs in batches of between 4 to 16. Within 4 days, the eggs will hatch into larvae. They then pupate and turn into worker bees within 4 to 5 weeks. This process continues throughout the spring and summer.
Honey Bee Swarms
A hive grows too big when the Queen can no longer communicate with all the bees. She will leave the nest, taking up to 60% of the worker bees, leaving behind a new queen with the remaining workers. This migration is known as a swarm because the bees surround the Queen to protect her. Swarms can occur throughout the spring and summer. It may take days for the multitude to find a suitable hive site, and while looking, they will rest on trees or buildings.
Although bees are relatively harmless, stinging only when threatened, swarming bees feel incredibly vulnerable, so it is advisable to keep away from them.

Identifying Honey Bees
Most honey bees appear alone and have the same three parts as other bees (head, thorax and abdomen) but differ in 2 main ways. The honey bee is hairless under the core, and its wings are different. Honey bees are members of the Hymenoptera order of insects, meaning they have two sets of branches that are hinged and operate as a single unit.
