Groveland Bee Removal and "Planking Bees"

We do quite a few bee removals in and around Groveland Fla., including the nearby towns of Mascotte and Clermont. Bee removal is often incredibly difficult, it's hot as hades in our bee suits, especially when working in humid Florida Temps above 95 degrees F.

But we still like to have some fun! Here you see our technician/Beekeeper Jason, as he's "planking" on top of a large chimney top.

"Bee Planking" during Groveland Bee Removal

Planking is a current worldwide phenonemon, and we aren't immune to its effects. Note the large number of bees on and around his helmet. Jason reports that these were likely Africanized Killer honey bees, as they were quite defensive and we've been seeing an increase in the Groveland Killer Bee numbers.

Clermont External Honey Bee Nest

This time of year, we get loads of calls for these kind of bee nests: External comb built right in or under tree branches:

Here's what you may not realize. The probability is High that these are Africanized Honey Bees (AHB), aka "Killer Bees", and not the desired European Honey Bees that we keep in our white boxes. However, it's possible to do a live relocation to our quarantine apiary, but we have to consider the sting risk before attempting such removals.

Please, do not attempt to perform removals on these type nests as these bees can turn very mean, once one tries to attempt removal or spraying.

Clermont Hornet Nest

Clermont Hornet and Yellow Jacket Removal

We are getting plenty of calls for Hornet removal, now that it's late summer. Hornets, (actually a large yellow jacket wasp), start building a paper nest in early spring, and in late summer and fall, become large enough to start stinging with force.
Hornet Control can be difficult, as the nests can contain up to about 500 individuals, with nearly all of them capable of delivering quite a wallop!
