Bees are a natural part of our environment. Without them, we would not be able to get our plants to grow in the garden, or even see some of those pretty flowers around when we want to go for a walk. We do need bees, and they are all bad. But as a business owner, you want to make sure that the bees are not able to get into your commercial property and that they do not start to build their hives right on the property.

Bees can be just fine when they don’t feel threatened, But they can sting and cause allergic reactions if they are allowed free reign around your commercial property. Since there will always be people around the property, this can be a major concern if you are someone who owns the property and you are worried.

With that in mind, you may wonder how long these bees are able to survive. The queen of the hive is able to live for a good amount of time, with many of them living two to three years on average. There are a few species that can go for even longer, with some making it up to five years. Then you have the average worker bee, who is not going to live for as long and their lifespan can depend on the time of year. They will live five to six weeks in the summer and up to six months in the winter to help sustain the hive and raise the new workers for the spring.

If you do see some of these bees around your commercial property, then it is a good idea to call in the professionals to help out along the way. The good news is that the worker bees will only be able to sting one time and then they die. But since you don’t want any customers stung at all, a good pest control plan is one of the best solutions to help protect everyone from the bees that are around.
