Bees in your walls, roof or yard in Jurupa Valley? I take them out alive, remove the hive and seal the entry so they don’t come back.

Jurupa Valley bee rescue
Most of the hives I take out in Jurupa Valley are tucked into spaces under decks and patios. I also find plenty in roof tiles and eaves and irrigation and water meter boxes. 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.
Getting the bees out is only half of a Jurupa Valley removal. The comb, honey and wax have to come out too, and then I seal the entry. Skip either one and you’re likely to have bees back in the same spot next year.
Jurupa Valley is about 11 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.

Services
I take live colonies out and rehome them with vetted local beekeepers.
Every bit of honeycomb out of walls, roofs, chimneys and sheds.
A ball of bees on a branch or fence in Jurupa Valley? I box it alive for $250.

Quiet, low-key removals for businesses, HOAs and property managers.

How it works
I find the hive, check how big it is, and walk you through the plan and the price before any work starts.
The colony comes out alive and stays together with its queen. I don’t use pesticides or poison.
I take out all the honeycomb, honey and wax residue, so there’s nothing left in there to rot or attract new bees.
I seal the entry points so bees don’t move back in, and the colony goes to a vetted local beekeeper.

“Eli the bee guy was very responsive to my calls and texts. I had a bee infestation under my water meter cover and he was able to get someone out in 2 hours to fix the problem. It was timely and responsive. He answered my questions professionally and with courtesy and addressed my concerns. I appreciated that. Would recommend!”

“Eli is the best! 5 stars! Professional and informative! Very easy to talk to. Texted me back whenever I ask questions. Explained how bee removal is a multi day process in my case. No problem! I had an outside hive in a decorative pedestal. Had it for 20 years! He took the brood and queen the first day. Then he allowed the workers time to settle down for a few days. During that time I had at least one large group swarm, then fly away. Eli informed me that this is normal and expected. Then he returned a few days later and took my remaining bees away! Everyone was saved!!! Thank You, Eli !!! Eli the GOAT! (Greatest Of All Time!)”

FAQ
Yes. Jurupa Valley is about 11 miles from my Ontario location, and I cover all of Riverside County. Call (626) 487-6052 to set up a free inspection.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Yes. I take care of wasp and yellow jacket nests too, including aggressive ground nests near patios, pools and play areas.
