When you notice a bee colony or swarm on your property, you have the decision to make whether to call in professional bee trappers or use bee traps as a DIY method. You’ll find plenty of sources to guide you to creating your own bee traps, but that isn’t in your best interest, and it definitely isn’t best for the bees.
Of course, the first consideration with calling bee trappers is that, in most cases, the bees will be relocated to an apiary where they can continue their productive and important lives. Bee traps kill the bees, and they are far too important to go that route.
Another consideration is that bee traps aren’t effective for dealing with the entire colony. The queen will stay protected and just produce more bees. Bee trappers are able to relocate the entire colony or swarm, so your bee problem won’t persist.
One last reason to go with bee trappers instead of bee traps is that the traps actually attract not only the bees you are trying to remove, but other species of bees and insects, too. You could find yourself with an aggressive bee issue when you began just with honeybees.
