Frequently Asked Questions

Topic:	Bees, miner bees
Question:	We have "miner bee" nests infesting and spreading on our front lawn. They have been a nuisance for years, but are now worse. How can we get rid of them?
Answer:	Miner bees are found across the eastern part of the US, so we aren't too familiar with them in Texas. Miner bees are garden pollinators, they do not sting nor make honey.
