.Bees are quite common, and just about everyone has had a run-in with them at one point or another. While we understand and appreciate all of the hard work that they do for the ecosystem, it is just as important to understand that they do not mix well with humans and when bees are near your home it can be a recipe for disaster that needs to be addressed.
The Danger
Bees typically will not attack people unprovoked, but the problem is that it is easy for them to view you as a threat accidentally. Children playing will often inadvertently get too close to a hive, and the bees inside might perceive it as an attack and swarm to defend the hive. It is crucial to prevent anything like this from happening by exercising caution and knowing the risks.
A bee sting can hold a wide range of severity from a mild irritant to a major allergic reaction, but regardless of how they affect you, one thing to keep in mind is that if bees are swarming and stinging you multiple times the effects will be compounded and significantly worse than an individual sting.
Where Are the Hives?
Knowing where the beehives are commonly located is an easy way to stay alert and cautious. People usually assume that hives are only in trees, but they can be almost anywhere. They can be dangling from a high-up branch, or as close to home as being right on your porch. Hives don’t even need to be suspended in the air as they can be found beneath a bush in the ground. No matter where the hive is, it has no place near your home, and proper measures need to be taken.
Bees can find small holes and build hives within wall cavities, inside your attic, above your ceiling, or inside soffits of your house. Hive inside the building creates additional risks. Bees can find their way inside the living area of your home. The honeycombs will attract other pests like cockroaches, rats, and raccoons.
Safe Beehive Removal
Bees can be dangerous when left unchecked which is why you should never tolerate a beehive on your property. If the beehive is inside yourhouse, you need to completely remove the nest and honey, clean the area, and repair the damage.
Because of their dangerous nature, never attempt to deal with bees on your own, but instead, call the experts at Critter Control® in Tallahassee to provide you with a safe and effective solution to your bee issues. Receive your free consultation by calling us today.

This company has been great. The technician Kensi was very through and checked everywhere to make sure all access points were found. After a skunk was found in the trap on a Saturday morning they came to pick it up very quickly.
Michael was super friendly and knowledgeable. He checked my entire house and recommended and installed the solution within an hour.
We are under contract with your company and so far they are doing a fine job. Many thanks.

Thank you!
So when I went to have my insulation replaced I figured out that I had a critter problem that was beyond anything I was aware of. Not wanting to waste time I decided to call a professional and these guys were really good from day one. From the gentleman who gave the estimate to both of the guys that came out and did the work there was great communication and they were very effective at what they did. One little thing got missed and all it took was one text message and somebody was out the next day to take care of it. They always text me when they're on their way or going to be at the house and they let me know what they found along with photographs. My first thought when they gave me the quote was wow that was a lot of money and I didn't want to spend that much and now that I've had them do the service I feel like it's worth every penny and it's actually pretty damn reasonable considering the number of times that they come out and all the things that they do take care of.
I had an issue with squirrels getting into a small section of roofing without access from the attic or inside of the home. Critter control was a huge help in solving the issue, especially thanks to Brandon and Nate. Ended up catching 3 squirrels living in the roof plus they seal the entrance point after all is said and done. I would absolutely recommend critter control, Brandon and Nate did a stellar job.
Dominick was very friendly and he consistently put on his shoe covers each time he entered the house. He looked over every inch of the storage room where we thought the animal was and did a walk around the yard to see if there was evidence of entry. He was very thorough. He did not find any animal at that time. He said he would leave a trap and review the outside area of the house over the next week. It was the next day that the smell in our storage room indicated that the animal had died. We followed the small and discovered a dead bird in an open storage bin. I would highly recommend Dominick for 'Critter Control'.
Thank you,
Valerie
Great explanations regarding findings, friendly, quality work! Each encounter with their tech has been professional and educational.
your representative (Dominic) was very friendly and quickly removed the dying raccoon from our outdoor window-well. He also shared information with us regarding raccoons on their behavior, what they liked/disliked, and provided information on how to disinfect the area the raccoon had been trapped in for a couple of days. I'd rate him 9 stars if I could. -pja
