Alhambra bee rescue
Live bee removal in Alhambra, done all the way
What a swarm wants, in Alhambra or anywhere else in Los Angeles County, is a dry, protected cavity, and tree hollows, attics and block walls all fit the bill. After they’ve built comb in there, that colony isn’t leaving on its own.
If a hive inside a structure gets sprayed, the dead bees and the honey stay in the wall, where they can stain it, attract pests and pull in the next swarm. On a live removal I take the whole colony out, comb and honey included, and then seal the entry.
Alhambra is about 28 miles from my Ontario Google Business location (Eli the Bee Guy | Bee Removal and Rescue). Eli the Bee Guy is owner-operated. I take on the large and high-liability removals myself, and smaller jobs go to my own trained crew, who use the same methods. I never hand a job off to a pest control company.

Live removal
The colony comes out alive and stays together with its queen. I don’t use pesticides or poison.

Full hive extraction
I take out all the honeycomb, honey and wax residue, so there’s nothing left in there to rot or attract new bees.

“Eli was very easy to work with. We set it up the day before and he was out on site on time and ready to go. He removed the beehive very fast. The whole process was very streamlined and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to call him again. Thank you, Eli again for the great work.”

“Eli, the bee guy was very professional and worked with my elderly parents in a nice and quick manner for an insane bee infestation they had in their backyard. He was able to coordinate with me (even not living in the area) and with my parents, accurately and timely. The best part was that the bees get to live a life somewhere that’s more safe and conducive for them. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Eli was great to work with. We had a 10+ year bee hive problem at our house and finally called Eli to come and remove the bees. It turned out to be 3 separate hives in the end. Eli had to come out several times to ensure they were all gone but each time he was very responsive and easy to work with.”

FAQ
Alhambra bee removal questions
Is Eli the Bee Guy available in Alhambra?
Yes. Alhambra is about 28 miles from my Ontario location, and I cover all of Los Angeles County. Call (626) 487-6052 to set up a free inspection.
Are the bees killed or relocated?
I remove bees alive whenever I can and relocate them to vetted local beekeepers. I’m a beekeeper, not an exterminator, and I don’t use poison on honey bees.
Can you get to a hive inside the structure?
Yes, hives in tree hollows, attics and block walls are routine work for me. I open up the cavity, take out the colony and all of the honeycomb, and then seal the entry point so bees don’t move back in.
What does bee removal cost in Alhambra, CA?
The inspection is free. The removal isn’t, because a proper live removal costs time, fuel, equipment and liability. Swarm removal is $250. A structural removal from a wall, roof or chimney usually runs $375 to $1,000, depending on how much I have to open up and seal. I’ll give you the exact price before any work starts. More on what goes into bee removal cost.
Can you come out today in Alhambra?
Often, yes. I’m open 24 hours Monday through Saturday, and a lot of the time I can come out the same day. If anyone in the house has a severe allergy to bee stings, tell me when you call. See emergency bee removal.
Do you remove wasps and yellow jackets in Alhambra too?
Yes. I take care of wasp and yellow jacket nests too, including aggressive ground nests near patios, pools and play areas.
