Capturing the Bees (Swarms)
Honey Bee Swarms
Honey bees normally divide their colony in the Spring- you may find a swarm clinging to a tree or bush in your yard. We capture the swarms with a bee vacuum or other methods and give them a new home in an apiary. No poisons are used and we do not harm the bees.
There is NO CHARGE for this service.
Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are pollinators of one third of our food supply, including a wide variety of fruits, vegetables and even nuts. If you find a swarm, DON’T KILL THEM. Call us or another beekeeper.
HIVE REMOVAL
What do you do if you find a colony of bees in you wall?
1) DO NOT SPRAY WITH INSECTICIDE.
2) Call us – We are professional beekeepers. We will extract the bees including all of the comb that contains either brood or honey. We will re-home the bees and their brood (when possible) and process any honey gathered.
The cost for the removal of a bee colony will depend on a number of factors such as size, location, accessibility, and length of time needed to complete. Costs can range from $100 to $1500.
