Why does it matter if you're called for a bee problem, but it's wasps? And wouldn't actual bee problems require a Bee Keeper?
Most of the time: it's more about the fact that bees are typically harmless, and calling a bee a wasp, to me, is like calling Starry, Pepsi, because they're both made by PepsiCo.
And yes, honeybees are a protected species here, meaning we'd need an apiarist to either remove the hive and capture the swarm, or officially tell us that the hive is too large to safely remove, without destroying the home.
