There are many different species of bees in New Jersey. Although Pest Control of Jackson NJ does not exterminate bees, we do exterminate wasps and hornets which many people mistaken for bees. Bees are beneficial for our environment as they are chief pollinators, allowing our plants and trees to blossom and grow. In New Jersey, honey bees are a protected species and it is therefore illegal to kill off or exterminate them.
The biggest difference between bees, wasps, and hornets is the bee has a wider, hairy body and they can only sting once in their life time. Wasps and hornets have thinner bodies, are mostly hairless, and can sting multiple times.
Although it is illegal to exterminate honey bees in New Jersey, it is legal to relocate them. A professional pest control company like Pest Control of Jackson NJ can delicately relocate the bee nest to a more convenient location for both the bees and your family.
Bees are generally not interested in human beings. They stick to collecting nectar and building beehives. They will only attack and sting humans when they feel threatened.
Each bee type has a different life span ranging anywhere from a few weeks to a few months. Honey bees each have a different job and depending on their job is the length of their life span. Worker bees live a max of approximately three weeks while the queen bee can live up to five years. Male honey bees only live long enough to mate the queen.
