YOUR HOME FOR BEE, WASP, AND HORNET REMOVAL AND LIVE HONEY BEE RELOCATION
Bumble bees
Like the honey bee, bumble bees are important pollinators and we try to relocate them whenever possible.
Bumblebees have round bodies covered in soft hair making them appear and feel fuzzy. They often have contrasting bands of color
Queen and worker bumblebees can sting. Unlike in honeybees, a bumblebee's sting lacks barbs so the bee can sting repeatedly without injuring itself; by the same token, the sting is not left in the wound.
Although bumblebee species are not normally aggressive, they often sting in deference of their nest or if harmed. As part of their aggressive defense of their nests, bumble bees will chase nest invaders for a considerable distance. The bumble bee sting is one of the most painful.
