Bee Removal FAQs in Phoenix, AZ
When you discover bees or a hive around your home or business, it is normal to have questions about what to do next. The Buzzing Bee LLC provides professional bee removal, live bee relocation, honeycomb removal, and wasp nest removal throughout Phoenix and surrounding communities. Our licensed and insured team works with both residential and commercial customers to safely handle bee issues while prioritizing the safety of people, pets, and property.
What should I do if I find bees around my home?
If you notice bees gathering around your property, it is best to avoid disturbing them and contact a professional bee removal company immediately. Bees can become defensive if they feel threatened, which may put your family, pets, or neighbors at risk. At The Buzzing Bee LLC, our technicians can evaluate the situation and recommend the safest solution, whether that involves live bee removal, hive relocation, or another treatment method. You can call, text, or email us for a quick quote, and customers are also welcome to send pictures of the bees to help us assess the situation.
Do you offer live bee removal in Phoenix?
Yes. Whenever possible, our team performs live bee removal using specialized bee vacuums designed to safely collect and relocate bees. This process allows us to remove the colony without harming the bees while also protecting your home or property. However, live removal is not always possible. If bees are located in difficult areas such as inside block walls, tree bases, or other hard-to-reach spaces, or if the bees are highly aggressive, alternative removal methods may be necessary for safety.
Is honeycomb removal included in bee removal services?
Honeycomb removal is typically an additional service, because removing the hive often requires opening parts of a structure to access the comb. Our technicians are experienced in removing honeycomb from drywall, stucco walls, roofs, flat roofs, sheds, and other structural areas. After the honeycomb is removed, we also repair the area that was opened during the process. Removing the honeycomb is very important because leaving it behind can attract new bees and other pests in the future.
Why is it important to remove honeycomb after bees are gone?
Even if the bees leave or are removed, the honeycomb can still contain wax, honey, and pheromones that attract other bees and pests. If the comb remains inside walls, roofs, or ceilings, it may cause recurring infestations. Professional honeycomb removal ensures that the hive materials are fully eliminated so your property does not become a target for future colonies. Our team carefully removes and cleans the affected area to help prevent bees from returning.
Do you offer preventative treatments for bees?
Yes. Preventative bee treatments can help reduce the chances of bees building a hive around your home. These treatments are often applied in areas where bees frequently gather, such as pool areas, eaves, and outdoor structures. We also provide treatments for scout bees, which are bees that search for new hive locations before a colony moves in. By addressing scout bee activity early, we can help prevent a hive from forming on your property.
Do you remove wasp nests as well?
Yes. In addition to bee removal services, The Buzzing Bee LLC also provides professional wasp nest removal. Wasps often build nests in areas such as bushes, ceilings, sliding glass doors, and the eaves of homes. Because wasps can be very aggressive, it is important to have a trained technician remove the nest safely. Our team uses professional equipment and proven methods to eliminate the nest and reduce the risk of future activity.
Do you provide bee extermination services?
Our goal is always to save and relocate as many bees as possible. However, there are situations where bee extermination may be necessary for safety reasons. If bees are located inside walls, eaves, tree bases, or underneath sheds, or if the colony is extremely aggressive, extermination may be the safest option. Our technicians will explain the situation clearly and provide honest recommendations so you can make the best decision for your property.
