Axles being dumb help...

Like it says my axles are being dumb... Let me clarify. They are stuck to the hubs. This is the second honda ive seen this on. Usually you take off the bolt that holds them to the hub hit them with a deadblow and they pop right out. Nope not here they are stuck... so the other method is me pulling them out while they are still attached to the spindle. And even thats a pain because i have to remove the lower balljoints which will probly need replaced after they get compacted. Why do they stick and how can i prevent this in the future. I'll probly have to take them to a press to get them out. more money more problems.
