Burbank bee rescue
Live bee removal in Burbank, done all the way
Most of the hives I take out in Burbank are tucked into palm trees. I also find plenty in tree hollows and attics. If a colony moves in during spring, it can be tens of thousands of bees by summer, with honeycomb filling the whole space behind it.
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.
Burbank is about 39 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.

“Eli was a joy to deal with. The beekeeper came right on time and promptly removed the swarm of honeybees that was taking up residence in my yard, I was so happy to find them a good home. Both Eli’s service and price were fantastic. I would recommend this service with no reservations.”

“Eli the best bee guy. Another pest control company told me that my bees were African killer bees and didn’t want to come out. but they were wrong. Eli knew exactly the type of bee and came out and took them away. Would definitely use his service again. Thanks Eli.”

FAQ
Burbank bee removal questions
Do you service Burbank, CA?
Yes. Burbank is about 39 miles from my Ontario location, and I cover all of Los Angeles County. Call (626) 487-6052 to set up a free inspection.
Is your bee removal humane?
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.
What if the hive is in my palm tree?
Yes, hives in palm trees, tree hollows and attics 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.
Is bee removal free in Burbank?
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 Burbank?
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 Burbank too?
Yes. I take care of wasp and yellow jacket nests too, including aggressive ground nests near patios, pools and play areas.
