Have to stop the queens from building nests

The specialist works carefully to remove the queens before nests & hives can be established.

Although I was raised on a farm & am used to living in the countryside, my wife is a town girl. She typically thought of camping as an idyllic & charming experience in every way possible, despite the fact that she never stopped grumbling when I finally took her to a local camping ground for a single night. First it was the mosquitos; then after getting rid of them with the campfire, she was infuriated about the brutal heat. I finally told my wife that despite caring about her, I knew that she was not cut out for camping or being self-sufficient in any way in the wilderness. Our household is halfway between our town & a rural suburb, so we easily have a few neighbors but the houses are clusters far apart from one another. There is also a nature preserve that happens to be adjacent to our backyard. It’s normal to have yellow jackets forming nests in the garage, but my wife totally hates it. She used a product called yellow jacket rescue, even though I told her both of us should call a bee removal service to do actual bee relocation. The specialist works carefully to remove the queens before nests & hives can be established. Often the queens are released in sites away from residences & commercial property. I am not the biggest fan of using insecticides, not because I am bothered when it comes to killing a few yellow jackets, but because of the environmental impact of using these nasty chemicals in the first place. Some of them are carcinogenic which is good to know. Paying for bee rescue & relocation is so much better than calling an exterminator to come out & spray chemicals at the few nests that we happen to have in our garage.
