Saving Bees in Trees

in Boulder Weekly

On a gray January morning, Chad Street stands in the dry Allen Ditch along 88th Street in front of what will soon become the new Westminster town center and mall. He pokes his head inside a foot-wide cavity in the standing trunk of a 130-year-old cottonwood, home to as many as 40,000 feral black bees...

A Honey Bee Swarm Can Be
a Nuisance for Homeowners

Did you know honey bees have been around for millions of years? They are vital to our environment as they are pollinators, and produce both honey and beeswax for humans. As important as they are, honey bee swarms can cause problems at your home or on public property – but we have the knowledge and experience to help. We can provide a full range of honey bee services to residents of Longmont, Boulder, and surrounding areas. We offer evaluation of your bee situation, removal or relocation of swarms, setup and education for your personal hive and other related services. If you're not sure if you have a honey bee or a yellow jacket problem, we’ll be glad to come out and evaluate.

Thoughts on EAB Treatment

    In dealing with EAB in Ash trees, as an Arborist and a beekeeper, my first goal is to educate customers. I want them to have the information to make a choice that takes into account tree health, pollinator health and options on the least toxic treatment options.
    I will always evaluate tree health, location and long term viability of the tree before considering treatment. If a tree has major damage or is in the wrong place such as under power lines or too close to a house, it would probably be best to remove and replant with a better species in a better location. Newly planted or small Ash trees may be best to just remove now and re plant with a different species.
    If a customer has a high value, healthy and properly placed Ash tree I would suggest treating the tree with TreeAzin via trunk injection for EAB control. This is administered every two years. TreeAzin is a neem seed derived product that is considered organic and is by far the least toxic to bees and pollinators. It’s control properties are specific to a handful of insects and doesn’t affect all insects blindly.
    Healthy trees are important to the environment also. Shade, temperature reduction, soil control, carbon sequestering, habitat and more. To me, trees and pollinators need to both be considered in long term environmental health.    
  No treatment is perfect in my mind but TreeAzin is by far the best choice I am aware of at this time.
