Davenport Yellow Jacket Removal: Huge Yellow Jacket nest in Fish camp

Davenport Fl: Fish Camp overrun by Gigantic Yellow Jacket Nest!

Yellow jacket wasps are opportunistic: They will gladly move into structures if humans are'nt using them effectively! This nest was found in an old Florida Fish camp in Davenport that had been abandoned for a short period

This species of yellow jacket is Vespula squamosa, the Southern Yellow Jacket, and it can contain hundreds of Queens, which allows the nest to grow into millions of individuals, and several feet in size!

Please, don't attempt a removal of yellow jackets, as they are deadly. We've had many fatalities occur in Florida because of improper removal techniques. Contact the Stinging Insect Experts at 1-800-343-5317 or submit a yellow jacket inquiry here!

July 3-Lake Mary Bee Removal

Lake Mary Bees in Wall
Here is a typical scenario we find in Florida. Honey Bees, ( including "Killer Bees" ), move thru a small wall opening and start building a nest inside the wall void. Homeowners see the activity and start spraying the nest, and either make the bees very, very mad, or kill some of the bees. In both cases the colony usually persists, albeit with some damage and possibly stings to homeowners or neighbors, or even pets!

Now what makes this even worse is that now that the colony is weakened, other insect opportunists move in and start consuming the honey and pollen that resides inside.This activity is simply the worst that can happen, as these maggots (mostly fly and beetle larvae), will quickly turn what could be hundreds of pounds of honey, pollen and other organic materials into a rotting, fermenting, viscous soup, coating the interior void and forever making that area a beacon for new bee infestations.

This pic shows the opening to the wall void, the hundred or so bees around the opening.The green shaded area marks the interior dimensions of the bee nest. We estimate about 90 pounds of material. Treated improperly, as most pest control companies will, you set your self up for a lifetime of cleanup and retreat costs....bee woe as it were.

Enter the "DTS" system, our Entomologist developed protocol,  prevents the fermentation and degradation, allowing the nest material to remain permanently, protected from secondary pests, and saving you significant cash!

Winter Garden Bee Removal - Queen Cell!

As we are entomologists, (Insect Scientists) & avid Beekeepers, we really dig bees AND we really did teaching folks about bees!  We were doing a City of Winter Garden Bee Removal last week and found several "Queen Cells" as pictured below:
Winter Garden Bee Removal - Queen Cell!

Queen cells are special pupal cells designed by bees just for raising queens. Queens are raised to replace a queen that either flies away with a reproductive swarm, is injured or is not producing eggs well enough for the colony's liking. The colony will produce several of these peanut-shaped cells, and orient them in a vertical position. Upon emergence, the first queen will seek out the others and if her sisters have not emerged, will sting them to death! If there are multiple emergent queens, they will seek each other out by 'piping', and fight for dominance of the colony.  No love lost in the bee world!
