Why Brandon homes get honey bee removal calls

Barrel-tile roofs in Brandon are notorious for gaps at the ridge — one of the most common squirrel and rat entry points we seal. That's exactly the environment where our honey bee removal work pays off — we find every entry point, remove the animal humanely, and seal your home so it stays out.

Why you can't just spray honey bees

Killing a hive inside a wall leaves pounds of honeycomb and dead brood behind. That comb melts, stains through drywall, attracts rodents, roaches, and wax moths, and draws in new swarms for years. A proper removal means opening the cavity, extracting every piece of comb, vacuuming the bees, and sealing the void.

Our honey bee removal process

1) Thermal and visual inspection to map the exact hive location inside the wall or soffit. 2) Careful cut-out of stucco, drywall, or siding to expose the colony. 3) Live capture of the bees and queen when possible for relocation to a local apiary. 4) Full removal of comb, honey, and brood. 5) Cavity cleaned, sealed, and the opening permanently closed with rated materials.

Signs of a honey bee colony

Steady bee traffic in and out of one small hole in your siding, soffit, or roofline. Buzzing you can hear through the wall. Honey or dark staining bleeding through drywall or stucco. Swarms are different — a swarm hanging from a branch will usually move on within a day or two; a colony in your wall will not.

Frequently asked questions

Do you kill the bees?

Whenever possible we perform a live removal and relocate the colony to a beekeeper. Some situations (aggressive colonies, unreachable cavities, medical urgency) require treatment — we'll walk you through the options on-site.

Do you repair the wall after removal?

We seal the cavity and close the entry point so bees can't re-colonize. Cosmetic stucco or drywall finishing can be included or left for your contractor — your choice.

How fast can you respond?

Same-day or next-day for most bee calls across Hillsborough, Pasco, Pinellas, Hernando, and Polk counties.
