To Buy Bees and Beekeeping Equipment

Relocation – Good Solution

• Bees saved
• Honey and wax combs removed
• Structure sealed
• No re-infestation
• More bees to pollinate

Extermination – Bad Solution

• Beneficial bees killed
• Leftovers draw insects and mold
• Honey seeps into house
• Old nest attracts new bees
• Insecticide contaminates
• Other beehives harmed
• Fewer bees to pollinate flowers
