Bee Service

Bee Treatment and Removal

While bees are beneficial to the environment, if they decide to take up residence in your eaves or around your home, they can quickly become a nuisance or a hazard to your family and your neighbors. Attempting to treat bees or to remove a bee hive on your own will most likely prove to only temporarily solve your problem and can be extremely dangerous. It is always advisable to call in a trained professional when bees are present.

Our trained professional can treat anything from a bee swarm to an established hive. If there is no hive present, we will exterminate the bees and seal the access points to prevent any bees from trying to becoming established in the same area in the future. If there is a hive present, then it is highly recommended that the hive is removed to prevent damage to the home and to prevent the attraction of other passing bees.

If the bee hive needs to be removed from a wall or other enclosed space, our trained professional team can open the area, remove the hive, and do the repairs. We have a general contractor’s license so you know the job will be done right.
