Bee Removal in the Dallas-Fort Worth Area — Why Save the Bees?

Honey Bee Rescue Inc. is a honey bee company dedicated to affordable live bee removal and safe swarm removals serving Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, Houston, San Antonio, Oklahoma City, and Shreveport. We are operated and managed by certified beekeepers and perform live bee removal with warranty and free estimates.

Honeybees are an important part of a thriving ecosystem and natural food supply. Over the past several years, the bee population has continued to dwindle, due in part to the extermination of hives. Honeybees don’t want anything to do with us and pose very minimal harm. We offer an alternative to bee extermination through live removal services that relocate hives to our apiaries across Texas.

Our bee control technicians safely remove bees from urban areas and relocate them to one of our apiaries to save the bees. Our honey bee removal technicians are not only beekeeper trained, but many are skilled contractors and pest control certified that can repair the area to the exact state in which we found it, bee proof the area, and ensure live bee removal.

Frequently Asked Questions

This is quite a complicated question. Although Honey Bee Rescue specializes in bee proofing homes it can be quite difficult to ensure bees do not enter older homes. Squirrels and other tree rats are constantly gnawing at woodwork making ample opportunity for honey bees to set up and start a beehive. Removal of bees caught early is not only the most affordable but is the best for the honeybees. We offer lifetime warranties to all of our bee removal and bee rescue areas. We remove the bees, patch the area, and the cavity so no bee swarms can return.
The best answer is to call a pest control operator that is experienced in hive removal and live bee removal that will save the bees. Most beekeepers are not licensed to perform bee removal from your house.
No. Smoking bee swarms or honey bees in general just calms the aggressive bees. It is very dangerous to apply smoke without experience and often a misconception of novice beekeepers or homeowners. It can result in agitated honey bee hives or worse fire. Smoke entices the bees to consume honey and can assist in beehive removals but will not drive them out. Also many chemicals such as newspaper ink and treated lawn clippings used can actually harm the bees making them more aggressive and difficult to remove. Africanized bees are quite common in Ft. Worth in mid summer and are very aggressive even with smoke.
Swarm removals are the least expensive of our services. We must charge something because we must pay for advertising from would-be beekeepers or exterminators as we want the bees. Also, there is a lot of work taking a swarm of honeybees from feral to becoming productive honey bee colonies. Swarm bees are usually covered in mites and other parasites which must be treated. And the queen bee in a swarm is usually older and must be replaced with good genetics. It is about 20 hours of work to get a honey bee swarm fully functional and productive.
The short answer is yes. But it is often difficult to find experienced professional bee removal technicians to do the work. Most backyard beekeepers do not understand what entails in re-homing a swarm of bees. They usually do not carry insurance or have the correct tools a licensed pest control operator must correctly perform live removals.
Although there are many chemicals that kill bees, there are not many that kill bees instantly. Most of the big box store chemicals we see used on honeybees are wasp sprays or some internet literature like soapy water which does not work. For your sake and ours please do not use these chemicals.
