Often times we hear customers saying things like "the bees have returned" or "we had them on the other side of the house last year, now they are on this side." There are typically only a few reasons why we see this.

First and foremost, it is due to improper removal. Simply exterminating the bees leaves the comb which, after the poison has worn away, attracts bees. This is why many removal companies are happy to exterminate — they know bees will most likely be back in a year or two. The only way to ensure they do not come back is to remove the comb and fill in the space.

Bees found on the other side of a property can be caused by swarming, or when an exterminator sprayed them with poison and they simply moved away from the poisoned area. About 60% of repeat removal cases are bees that moved away from a previously poisoned area.

At Honey Bee Rescue, we perform complete removals — extracting the bees, removing all comb, filling the cavity, and sealing the entry point. That is why we can offer a warranty on our work.
