Guest guest Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 Have to agree with Tom. I use to be afraid of bees, wasps, and hornets. Then one day while sitting at the creek, reading a book. A hornet came along, and buzzed about me. Knowing better than to swat, I started a very low, non-threating buzz, myself. The hornet kinda hovered, and then flew away. I thought, 'Cool!' So now, when anywhere that such subjects show up, I buzz back at them, if they get to close for my comfort. They usually hover a moment and then leave. Try it, it's worked for me many times...

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 Well, for the most part, I would agree with you, but there are some varieties, like carpenter bees, that can be a big nuisance. Also if you have a colony or swarm claiming a location you can't avoid like right over your back door... That would be a good enough reason for me to get rid of them, particularly if you are very allergic to bee stings. What problems are you having with the bees exactly (swarm, nest, just a few random foragers?), and what kind are they? I might be able to offer some advice if you provide more details.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 herbal remedies , Konstantin Freger <kfreger> wrote: > > Can anyone help how to kill the bees in the yard > naturally? > > Thanks ******** Under most circumstances, I would say not to kill any bees. They are very beneficial when it comes to growing anything (foods/herbs/flowers) due to their pollination efforts. Most times, they will not hurt you, unless you mess with them or their hives. That being said, there are some occasions where a swarm will become very aggressive, and will strike at almost anything that moves. When this type of swarm moves in where it can create serious problems (such as in/on a house, near a doorway, or hole in the ground/yard etc.) there are a few options. Personally, I would not try to remove/kill a hive yourself, without protective gear. You may be able to locate a beekeeper in your area that will come and remove/kill/relocate the bees for you. (depending on the bee type) Another option, is to locate a pest management company that does not use poisons to kill the hive. You should be able to find these options in the yellow pages of your phone book. Just be sure to ask what methods they use to remove/kill the hive. Around here, the bees that tend to become angry/aggressive are yellow jackets and/or bald-faced hornets. Honey bees and Bumble bees are usually very docile, and rarely cause problems. I normally appreciate all the various bees/wasps/hornets we have around here, and they don't bother anyone. But, last year, we had a huge hive of yellow jackets that was attached near the top of the house, right above the herb garden and our back door. This swarm became very aggressive for some reason, and nobody could go near the herb garden to water it or harvest it, and the bees would attack the screen to the bathroom window anytime you went in there. They would also swarm into the house if you opened the back door, and start attacking the light fixtures (or anything that moved). They would go after our dogs too. Due to weather conditions, the bees could not keep up with the hive building, and by evening, the bees would all have to stay on the outside of the hive, covering the whole thing. (I am not sure if that is why they became so aggressive) I felt really bad about deciding to have them killed, but they became worse & worse over time, and I feared for our safety, and that of our dogs and cat. Anyways, after calling many different places that all used poisons to kill the hives, I did finally find a place that used natural ingredients. They used a combination of mint oil and enzymes. He advised that some swarms of yellow jackets can become very aggressive and its not a trait that should be passed on to the next generation. (apparently, the attacking/aggression can be " learned/inherited " from previous generations too) He estimated there were at least 800 bees in that hive, with another 300 or so eggs waiting to be hatched. We didn't even notice the hive (even tho it was huge), until the bees started swarming and attacking. This year, we will be watching, and will try to discourage any hive building on the house, before it gets to that size.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 I heavily vote for the beekeeper. Most beekeepers, during springtime, spend a lot of time capturing and hiving swarms. There's no reason to poison them, since they can be easily and successfully re-established. They're only doing what they do naturally and bees are not typically harmful. It is not difficult to find a knowledgeable beekeepers- if you have difficulty call the county extension office- yes, even in a metropolitan area. herbal remedies , " zoomom9 " <zoomom9> wrote: > herbal remedies , Konstantin Freger > <kfreger> wrote: > > > > Can anyone help how to kill the bees in the yard > > naturally? > > > > Thanks > > ******** > Under most circumstances, I would say not to kill any bees.

Its called Bee Venom Therapy. Below is an article describing it, how it is done, and what symptoms may be good for. I have never used the therapy, but I have read several articles describing it, and know of a couple of people who tried it, and said it worked for them. I did find the subject very interesting, tho. Jan / Michigan http://www2.shore.net/~spectrum/apitherapy.html <snips> (for entire article, see link above) Apitherapy, the medicinal use of honey bee products, has been practiced since ancient times. In the modern world honey bee venom has found wide uses in treating arthritis and other inflammatory and degenerative diseases..... Bee Venom therapy can be useful in a wide variety of medical situations. Charles Mraz, a beekeeper in Middlebury, Vermont who has popularized bee venom therapy for the past 60 years, says that it is reasonable to try bee venom therapy in any clinical situation where nothing else works. However, there are four situations which are most frequent: Arthritis and other systemic inflammations... Acute and chronic injuries. Bursitis, tendonitis and other areas of injury respond well to bee venom therapy.... Scar tissue.... Multiple Sclerosis.... There are physicians around who use bee venom therapy in their practices. This is done by obtaining the venom (in sterilized vials) and injecting it under the skin, sometimes mixed with a local anesthetic. Some say that collecting the venom in vials loses some of its potency, but in many situations this is more realistic than finding a beekeeper or handling bees.... Fortunately, most " bee " sting allergic reactions are actually to yellow jackets or wasps. Honey bee venom does not necessarily cross- react, and some studies show honey bee stings to account for less than 5% of all adverse stinging insect reactions....
