Do not a approach a beehive, the threat of Killer Bees (Africanized bees) is real.

Africanized (or Africanised) bees can be incredibly more dangerous and aggressive than the already notorious honey bee. They are much quicker to attack and when they do, they are far more relentless in pursuing a threat. It's very difficult for the average person to tell the difference between a killer bee and its less dangerous cousin. As such, we approach every hive with extreme caution. Our technicians are fully licensed and trained and have the equipment to take care of your issue as effectively and safely as possible.

Swarming Bees

In the spring and summer you may see large swarms of seemingly hundreds of bees on a tree or on the side of a house. Often times this is a group of bees looking for a place to establish a new hive. Many times when this happens the hive moves on within a day and moves on to a new location. Swarming bees should be watched very carefully and avoided as much as possible. Disturbing bees is a bad idea if you are not trained or do not have the correct equipment. If you see a large group of bees and are unsure if this is a hive or just a swarm just give us a call.
