Bee Removal Services

Need to get rid of bees in Sydney or Northern NSW?

Whether you need to remove a bee infestation from your home or you want to remove bees from a nearby tree, B-Honey can help you!  Bee swarm removal is a dangerous business so the best thing you can do is stay well clear so that the bee swarm doesn’t turn it’s attention on you! 

If you ring a pest control company to come and remove the bee swarm or bee hive they will usually call beekeepers like us to come and remove the bees.

After removing bees we will give them a good home in a nice bee hive on our honey farm.

How to remove a bee hive?

1. Make sure your medical insurance is paid up.
2. Seriously now, this is not something to be attempted by amateurs. Don’t try to get the swarm to move on by doing things such as spraying it with water, throwing stones at it or blowing smoke at it. These actions will only aggravate the bees and make it more difficult for the beekeeper to remove the swarm.
3. Stay calm. When you see a swarm of bees they aren’t attacking – they’re looking for a place to set up a new nest. They will often cluster on a tree or somewhere while scout bees go off to find a new location to start a nest.
4. Keep your children and animals well away from the bees.
5. Wear shoes to protect your feet, in case bees have settled on the ground.

Swarming occurs when a bee colony becomes too large. Half the bees will leave with the queen bee to start a new colony. Along the way they may stop and swarm at a temporary location for a couple of days until they have found a permanent location to start a new nest.

If you need to remove a nest that has been in place for a long time it can be quite a difficult removal process and it will often be necessary to resort to bee extermination in order to prevent a new set of bees re-occupying the nest.
