Bee Removal

Bee-friendly advice first, with treatment only where it is truly needed

About bees

Bees are vital pollinators and we always look to relocate honey bee swarms rather than destroy them. Where a colony is genuinely a risk, or where it is a more aggressive species in a wall cavity, we assess the situation honestly and recommend the responsible course of action.

Bee Removal by The Pest Control Co
How to spot them

Signs of a bee problem

  • A swarm clustered on a branch, fence or wall, often in late spring
  • Bees entering a single gap in brickwork, soffit or roofline
  • Honeycomb or waxy residue near an entry point
  • Steady bee traffic to and from a cavity or chimney
Why it matters

The risks of leaving bees untreated

  • Stings, with a serious risk to anyone with a bee allergy
  • Established colonies in cavities can leave honey and wax that attracts other pests
  • Some solitary and masonry bees can affect soft mortar over time
Our approach

How we treat bees

01

Correctly identify the species, as honey, bumble, masonry and solitary bees differ

02

Refer honey bee swarms to a local beekeeper for relocation wherever possible

03

Only treat where there is a genuine safety risk and relocation is not viable

04

Advise on sealing cavities once a colony has gone to prevent reoccupation

Keep them away

Preventing bees coming back

  • Repoint soft or crumbling mortar that masonry bees favour
  • Seal disused cavities and chimney gaps after a colony is cleared
  • Avoid blocking an active entry, which can drive bees indoors

When you will see them

Swarming season runs from late April to July, when honey bee colonies divide and look for new homes.

Guaranteed treatment

We treat the source and proof the entry points, then follow up to make sure the problem stays solved.
