Describe the activity without disturbing it
Explain whether insects are visiting flowers, gathering together or repeatedly entering a building opening. Keep a distance and use an existing photograph if available. Bees, wasps and hornets should not be treated as interchangeable concerns.
Confirm the right kind of help
Ask whether identification, relocation or another response is appropriate and available. Honey-bee relocation is not guaranteed by this website. Describe access and any occupied area nearby so the next step can be discussed accurately.
Does every bee sighting require removal?
A sighting alone does not establish the need for work. Explain the location and pattern so identification and an appropriate response can be discussed.
