Bee Removal in Grand Rapids and Surrounding Areas

While bees are an essential part of our ecosystem, they can also pose a threat to humans and their property when they build hives in or around homes and businesses. Bees can sting, and their nests can attract other pests, such as rodents and birds. If you have a bee hive on your property, it is important to have it removed by a professional pest control company.

Types of Bees:

There are many different species of bees, but the most common types of bees that are found in Grand Rapids, Michigan and the surrounding areas include:

Honeybees: Honeybees are the most common type of bee in North America. They are beneficial to the environment because they pollinate crops and other plants. However, they can also be a nuisance when they build hives in or around homes and businesses.
Carpenter bees: Carpenter bees are large, black bees that bore holes in wood to build their nests. They can damage siding, trim, and other wooden structures.
Bumblebees: Bumblebees are large, fuzzy bees that are typically seen in the spring and fall. They are not as aggressive as honeybees, but they can still sting.
Hornets: Hornets are large, black and white wasps that can be very aggressive. They build their nests in trees, shrubs, and under eaves.
Yellow jackets: Yellow jackets are small, black and yellow wasps that can be very aggressive. They build their nests in the ground, under rocks, and in other hidden places
