Bee Removal in West Lake Hills, TX

West Lake Hills is one of Austin's most desirable enclaves — perched in the Hill Country with views of downtown, Barton Creek nearby, and the kind of homes where the landscaping alone has its own irrigation system. It's also home to mature live oaks, native juniper, and enough flowering plants to sustain a thriving bee population. When that population decides to establish a colony inside one of those beautifully maintained properties, Honey Bee Rescue provides the live removal services to address it properly.

Properties in West Lake Hills and the Eanes ISD area tend to feature high-end construction — stone, stucco, cedar, and custom masonry. These materials are durable and attractive, and they also create the kinds of micro-gaps and sheltered cavities that bees seek out for nesting. A colony behind hand-laid limestone is following the same instinct it would in a natural rock face, and it has no concept of your home's appraised value. Our licensed team (TDA #083303) performs meticulous removals that prioritize both the survival of the colony and the preservation of your property. We understand what's at stake when we open a custom stone wall.

The Barton Creek greenbelt, the nature preserves in the surrounding hills, and the general commitment to preserving green space in West Lake Hills all contribute to a healthy and active bee ecosystem. This is one of the ecologically richest parts of the Austin metro, which means bee activity is consistent and sometimes intense, particularly during spring swarm season. A swarm in your courtyard is a temporary situation. A colony behind your fireplace stone is not.

Every colony we remove is relocated alive to our managed apiaries across Texas — over 300 hives producing honey and supporting pollination. If bees have established themselves on your West Lake Hills property, call Honey Bee Rescue at (214) 227-7562. We bring the same level of care to the removal that went into building the home.
