Environmentally-friendly Residential Bee Removal in Los Angeles.
A Better Home for You and for Bees.
Contrary to popular opinion, bees are gentle creatures.
They do not want to harm us, and we shouldn’t be harming them. We need them to pollinate our food crops.
So, when you have a swarm or a hive that you do not want, don’t destroy them. Call Eli the bee guy! I will come to you, assess the situation, and provide you with a plan of action to safely rehome them. I use live-capture methods to ensure our winged pollinators are rehomed without fuss and with minimal disruption to your life.

Frequently Asked Questions
Every swarm/ nest is different. The removal timeframe will depend on the size of the colony and how long they have been living in your home. It may take several days to collect all the bees and completely remove the hive. Once gone, I guarantee that the same swarm will not come back.
I have spent many years studying bee behavior and understanding their language. Bees do not consider humans as an enemy. Other insects, such as wasps, that think humans mean to take over their colony or eat them will defend themselves to save their queen. In contrast, honey bees can only sting once and die soon after. When they sting us, it is generally because we have accidentally stood on them in bare feet or have scared them into thinking their home is about to be destroyed.
It can be scary to see a swarm of bees coming towards you, but it can also be beautiful to observe. The best thing to do is to remain calm. Do not wave your arms or hands. Instead, walk away quietly while protecting your face and eyes (in case they are annoyed about something else). Once you are at a safe distance, call a professional like me to move them along for you.

Exterminating bees through spraying only temporarily solves the issue, as the remaining hive is covered in a pheromone, which will attract new inhabitants long after the poison has evaporated. Live capture removal is the best long-term solution to unwanted bees - good for the planet and good for your wallet.
