\"How
How to Prevent Bee and Wasp Stings<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Warmer temperatures mean you and your family will most likely be spending more time outdoors. Unfortunately, this time of year is also when bees<\/a> are active. While honeybees can be beneficial for plants and flowers, you don\u2019t want yourself or your family members getting stung. Use these tips to prevent bee stings.<\/p>\n

Wear Darker Colors<\/strong><\/p>\n

Light colors attract bees, so it\u2019s better to wear clothes with darker colors when you go out during summer. You should also avoid wearing clothes with floral patterns.<\/p>\n

Skip the Scents<\/strong><\/p>\n

Perfumes, soaps, lotions and other scented products typically attract a curious bee or two. Avoid wearing products that give off a scent, especially if it\u2019s a sweet or floral one.<\/p>\n

Keep Drinks Covered<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re drinking soda, juice or another sweet beverage, make sure it\u2019s covered when you\u2019re outside. A bee can fly into cans or other containers, and you might not notice that it’s in there when you take a sip.<\/p>\n

Clean Up Trash<\/strong><\/p>\n

Keep your yard free of trash, especially bits of food that might encourage bees<\/a> to hang around on your property. Trash should be secured in a garbage can that\u2019s closed, so these pests can\u2019t get inside.<\/p>\n

If you have a bee problem in your yard, please contact Allison Pest Control<\/a>. Our pest control professionals can get rid of these pests on your property in a safe manner and take steps to prevent additional infestations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
