Honey Bee Colony Removal
We Save The Bees!
Bee Brothers removes honeybee swarms and established colonies safely, ALIVE, from trees, walls, chimneys and roofs.
Before you call an exterminator, consider how important honeybees are for pollinating our food and consider the crisis which bees are currently experiencing.

Removal of colonies which have become established are significantly more difficult, and therefore usually more expensive, depending on the situation. Phone estimates are free.
People sometimes call and ask whether a swarm of bees in a tree will leave of their own accord? The answer is, yes they almost certainly will! The problem is that while a swarm is hanging from a tree branch or sitting on your fence, scouts are checking out sites for a more permanent home.
The scouts look for a nice warm dry cavity which is to their liking. They will check out anywhere they can find which includes any cavity in your house walls, roof, chimney, hot-tub or under your garden shed or deck. They only need a hole 3/8" in diameter. Once they have found a place they like, the whole swarm will take to the wing and populate their new home.

Removing a swarm from a tree branch is infinitely easier than from inside the roof of your house. If left to their own devices a colony will build combs and might store 100lbs. of honey.
If anything happens to the bee colony and the honey is left unattended, the wax can soften and leak honey which absorbs water and soon starts to ferment.
Imagine what it would be like to have 100lbs. or more of fermenting honey dripping through your ceiling, and how costly the clean-up might be.
Bee careful, not all companies remove bees alive!
I have heard stories, from customers, of the remover saying, "We'll try and remove them alive.". I've seen photos on company websites which show loads of comb, but not a single bee. Believe me, when you have honey comb in these situations, you have honey bees!
Bee Brothers only carry out live removals!
If combs and bees are accessible in a roof space, nest or storage cabinet removal is reasonably straightforward.
Bee Brothers can remove bees from places where they are quite inaccessible, it can be a challenge. The longer they have been there, the more reluctant they are to leave and the more difficult the task becomes.
