Live Bee Removal
Have honey bees built a hive near your home that’s a little too close for comfort? Our bee experts can remove and relocate the hive to a local bee caretaker for you. With Joshua’s Pest Control, you can rest easy without the threat of potential stings as you enjoy your yard.
How Does the Live Bee Removal Process Work?
This environmentally friendly process begins with our field expert locating the queen bee and placing her in a bee box. Once the queen is contained, the rest of the colony will follow her into the receptacle. We then remove the hive’s honeycomb and relocate the colony to a local apiary where the bees are cared for by a beekeeper. After removing the hive, we apply a pet- and family-friendly product to remove the bees’ pheromones and prevent bees from rebuilding a hive in the same location.
*Live bee removal services are available at select locations only. Please call your local branch to learn more.
