Honey Bee Removal - Ft. Worth
Ft. Worth is a unique area when it comes to honeybees. Our warmer than average winters rarely fall below freezing and if they do it does not last long. Our wet springs and plentiful grassy areas with our giant oaks, cotton wood and hack-berry trees make for an abundance of honey bees. With the plethora of honeybees unfortunately sometimes they end up in places they are not supposed to be. Below we will discuss some of the seasonal observations and bee removal specific for Ft. Worth Texas. For all your bee related issues you can also call us:

Spring swarm season in Ft. Worth Texas is always buzzing with many new honeybee swarms needing to be removed from homes and businesses. Honeybees are very distinct in their swarm shape consisting of bees’ furry thorax and yellow and black bands that range from light bright yellow to almost black. Odds are if you see a cluster of flying insects in the spring and it is not in a structure it is most likely a honeybee swarm. These swarm of bees tend to anchor themselves on small branches of trees and range from a baseball sized ball to bigger than two watermelons. Occasionally customers will have a honeybee swarm on their house or other places. So, what to do if you "Have a honeybee swarm on my house," you ask? The best option is always a live honey bee removal in Fort Worth by a professional beekeeper and not to use pest control or exterminators. Swarms rarely are Africanized bees. Quite the opposite. That group of honeybees is quite calm as the new queen bee and honeybee scouts look for a new place to make a new beehive. Despite being full of honey and very docile when swarming, it is still recommended to use a professional local bee control company in Fort Worth. If you happen to catch a honeybee swarm mid-flight it is an amazing experience. Below is a video we managed to catch right as a very large colony of bees arrived. Unlike other flying insects as a yellow jacket or carpenter bee only honeybees group together to form a bee hive like this in such unusual places here in Texas. It is always best to use an experienced Fort Worth honey bee removal service when removing swarms. Never should they use powders to treat a swarm as this will sicken the bees. A beekeeper can easily brush a swarm of bees into a box and save the bees for a future beehive.
Bee Removal Specialists
Hive Removal in Ft. Worth Texas is quite common. Our older ranch style houses in Highland Park and Lakewood and architectural desire to encapsulate roof-lines and eves in East Ft. Worth provides ample cavities for bees and squirrels alike to move into our homes. Often referred to bees in my roof, these bee swarms actually use the space between our insulated exterior wall to establish a bee hive requiring live bee removal by a beekeeper, skilled carpenter and pest control technician. Rarely do companies have all three. Our experienced bee removal specialists in Fort Worth are trained in all three. We can remove bees, clean out the beehive and bee colony, and repair any damages and specialize in bee proofing the area so no bee extermination will ever be needed again.
Beehive removals from these areas although common can be quite complicated depending on the location, material, and size of the live bee removal. Having a chemical only bee control performed on an established honey bee hive is something we strongly recommend against. Chemical bee control provided by pest control technicians and exterminators leaves the beehive wax in the wall, it kills the bees, and it is almost guaranteed not to work. Live be removal extracting the honeycomb and filling the space is the only way to ensure honeybees do not return and additional pest control is not needed.
Other areas we see in Ft. Worth Texas and surrounding areas that we relocate honey bees hives from is the city and residential water boxes or cable boxes near our homes. It can be quite an issue with a broken pipe and a water box with a well-established bee colony and try to find a bee removal company or licensed pest control technician. If you see bees coming out the keyhole you most likely have an established hive and need hive removal. These honeybees can easily be rescued by our bee rescue technicians and relocated quickly with minimal cost.

Congratulations. If you are reading this you most likely live in Ft. Worth and have a honey bee or a bee related issue needing local bee control, beekeeper, or safe live honey bee removal services. So, why not use services by a local beekeeper that owns and operates a Texas apiary that is from the area!
Our first safe bee removals with our first honey bee removal services were performed for our friends and family with honeybee related issues and people wanting live bee removal service. It is where we perfected our “Save the bees” motto and honeybee removal processes, encountered our first hive of killer bees, and tuned our technique for live bee swarm and honeybee rescue.
Initially we performed live bee removals to replace dead out bee hives that failed over winter in our Texas apiary and to expand our Texas apiary by gathering bees from Ft. Worth and other areas.
We have come a long way since our start and have performed many honey bee rescues, safe bee removals, swarm retrievals, and live bee relocations all to save the bees. Local Ft. Worth bee control by a beekeeper is what we do and we are good at it!

Why SO many Bees in Ft. Worth?
Fort Worth’s environment is the preferred location for bees to canalize. With thriving wildlife—including some of honey bee’s favorite foliage and flowers—there is plenty of resources to sustain a honey beehive. Mild winters also add to the local survival rate of bees. This ideal environment for bees to thrive, in turn, makes it a hot spot for bee and hive removal services.
At Honey Bee Rescue, we’ve removed hives from all sorts of structures and environments, including some incredibly mature hives that were tucked away and out of sight for quite some time. As beautiful as they are, older homes in Fort Worth are more susceptible to swarms finding a home in any little hole or gap, as they are not sealed to the same degree as they are today. We’ve also found bee colonies (in both older and newer homes) almost everywhere—from in the older wooden uninsulated garage walls to under the house or garage foundation to the eaves of ranch style homes. Our Fort Worth honey bee removal services have also come in handy in removing hives from trees—such as cottonwood, hackberry, and elm—from our clients’ properties.
Why SO many Bees in Ft. Worth?
Ft. Worth and the surrounding area create an ideal habitat for honey bee colonies and honey bee nests and is one of the foremost areas in the metroplex for bee removal services. Mild winters allow bee hives to survive using less resources aiding to bee colony success. The many acres of wetlands cater to a plethora of vegetation and honey bee friendly flowers which increases the survivability of wild honey bee nests.
Also the area has many back yard beekeepers who unfortunately have honeybee hives that escape via swarm adding to feral honey bee populations often requiring honey bee control.
As a point of reference on average we remove 30-50 owl boxes of honey bees a summer just from North East Dallas alone! Now that is a lot of new bee hives!
Older homes in the area also provide ample places for honey bees to create a hive or establish new bee colonies. Homes back in the day were not created to be as sealed as they are today and would “Breathe,” which is a nice way of saying there are lots of little holes and gaps for honey bees to make a new bee nest.
Many of the bee colonies we perform live bee control for in the area are of established bee nests. Some of the biggest removal jobs we have done have been bee hives of honeybees often times residing in older wooden uninsulated garage walls, under the house or garage foundation, or in the eaves of ranch style homes. We see homes infiltrated after squirrels or tree rats gnaw into soffits or eves creating the perfect entryway for new honeybee swarms to set up new honeybee hives. We do find some bee colonies in dying trees especially cottonwood trees, hackberry trees, and elm trees as these tend to hollow out creating the perfect place for honeybees to set up a new honeybee colonies requiring safe honeybee removal services.
So, if you have questions about the local honeybee removals in Ft. Worth please give us a call for free no obligation quotes from local beekeepers. We promise to be quick and help you with any honeybee related issues.
