About beehive extermination

Bees become more active from early spring to autumn. Please be aware that paper wasps and wasps may build nests under the eaves of your house or in the branches of trees in your garden.
About public facilities, we perform beehive extermination in city hall. For private land, we ask the owner to take action.
It should be noted that wasps are highly aggressive and highly dangerous, so it is recommended to entrust them to an exterminator.

The Life Environment Division of the city hall provides free rental of protective clothing and insecticidal spray (not compatible with wasps) for exterminating beehives.
Please use it when you want to get rid of beehives by yourself.

Bees are also living creatures. For humans, they are also beneficial insects that eat flies, spiders, and caterpillars. Bees attack mostly out of defensive instinct.
Paper wasps in particular are docile species, and rarely attack unless you poke the nest or remove the bees with your hand.
If a nest has been established in a place where there are no obstacles or dangers to daily life, such as where people do not come in and out, refrain from recklessly removing the nest.
