Honeybee Swarm Removal

When a colony has overgrown its space the colony splits.  Part of the original colony is left behind while the rest of the colony along with the queen leaves the original hive.  This is the act of swarming.  While the scouts are looking for a new home the swarm attaches to a structure which is usually a tree but could be a mailbox, car, side of a house, ....  Once a sutable home is located the swam will take up residence and continue their normal activities.  

Please do not contact an exterminator to remove the swarm. 

Instead Call or Email us at
