How do you get rid of bees that are flying into a crack of the foundation of your house?

Be sure they are bees first! Bees have fat round bodies with golden color to the body and circular dark stripes. If this is the case then call a beekeeper and they will use their smoke cans to stun the bees so they can take them away along with the hive (if at all possible.) Bees are becoming almost extinct in the U.S. and Canada and beekeepers are finding hives full of dead bees. Save the bees! If this so called bee has a longated body, golden in color or sometimes dark and may have a small stripe you are probably looking at a hornet or a wasp and they do sting! They will also swarm a person so it's to your best advantage to get an Environmentally conscious Exterminator in to get rid of them. DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS YOURSELF!


How can you get approximately 100 bees that do not sting but stay around your backyard pond and sit on the lilypads to relocate?

Bees seldom sting unless you accidently land on them with a hand or bare feet. Consider yourself lucky you have them. Scientists are extremely worried about bees dying off as are beekeepers. Bees pollinate so let them be and do what they do best ... pollinate. If it bothers you locate a beekeeper and they will be happy to come and get the bees.
