Bee Removal...

Bee removal instead of bee extermination is most vital for our environment. The honey bee pictured above is performing the much needed task of pollination.

Pollination of agricultural crops, home gardens, orchards and wildlife habitat is a very important part of the honey bees live. As bees travel from blossom to blossom in search of nectar, they transfer pollen from plant to plant, which aids in fertilizing the plants and enables them to bear fruit. such as Almonds, apples, avocados, blueberries, cantaloupes, cherries, cranberries, cucumbers, sunflowers, watermelon and many other crops.

Join with us to allow bee removal instead of bee extermination. We want to save them for our environment.

Frequently Asked Bee Removal Questions

 

How far will you travel to do a bee removal?

We will travel as far as we need to in order to give you the service that you need. We currently service North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia. Give us a call at 803-754-7577 to discuss your exact issue.

Why Can't I just plug the hole they are going in and out of? Won't this take care of the problem?

No...plugging the hole with caulk or expanding foam will not take care of the problem. In fact this will make it worse. When bees build comb in your wall or ceiling they can build as much as 6 feet of comb and store as much as 10 Gallons of honey. If you are successful at killing all of the bees (as many as 60,000) you have not only the comb and honey to worry about you also have 60,000 dead bees that can cause even more problems. This is called a "dead out" or dead hive. When the bees die they will decay causing horrible smells and stains on ceilings and walls. The uncured honey and bee eggs and larvae will also decay attracting other bugs and rodents. This whole situation can make a mess for you and an even bigger mess for the remover.

Do you kill the bees when you remove them from my home?
