Cerritos bee rescue
Live bee removal in Cerritos, done all the way
Cerritos is home to about 50,000 residents in Los Angeles County, and the honey bees like it here as much as the people do. When I get a call in Cerritos, the colony is usually in spaces under decks and patios, roof tiles and eaves or irrigation and water meter boxes, and most people don’t know it’s there until they hear the buzzing.
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.
Cerritos is about 21 miles from my Orange County Google Business location (Eli the Bee Guy | Bee Removal and Rescue - Orange county). 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.

FAQ
Cerritos bee removal questions
Is Eli the Bee Guy available in Cerritos?
Yes. Cerritos is about 21 miles from my Orange County location, and I cover all of Los Angeles County. Call (626) 487-6052 to set up a free inspection.
Do you kill the bees?
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 spaces under decks and patios, roof tiles and eaves and irrigation and water meter boxes 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.
How much does bee removal cost in Cerritos?
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.
Do you offer same-day or emergency bee removal in Cerritos?
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.
What about wasp and yellow jacket nests?
Yes. I take care of wasp and yellow jacket nests too, including aggressive ground nests near patios, pools and play areas.
