How can we bee better?
We don't treat honey bees under any circumstances.
We don’t treat bees at greenpest. Our experience shows they pose a minimal risk to safety and where there is a risk - their benefits often outweigh the negatives.
Did you know?
- Treating a bees nest with insecticide can spread to other hives when an infected bee travels to it. This then in turn infects bees in another nest.
- Bees pollinating of plants helps over 75% generate a higher yield than if unpollinated.
- Honey has amazing health benefits and provides a natural sweetener when compared to refined sugar.
What are we doing?
We’re partnering with local beekeeper charities to help safely move bees where we can. We can offer advice, explain the differences between bees and wasps and help you make your garden bee friendly. We’ll even give you a honey smoothie recipe if you like!
