La Palma bee rescue

Live bee removal in La Palma, done all the way

Most of the hives I take out in La Palma are tucked into wall cavities. I also find plenty in chimneys and palm trees. 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.

La Palma is about 19 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.

How it works

From first call to bee-free

  1. Free inspection

    I find the hive, check how big it is, and walk you through the plan and the price before any work starts.

  2. Live removal

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

  3. 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.

  4. Seal and relocate

    I seal the entry points so bees don’t move back in, and the colony goes to a vetted local beekeeper.

  • “Called about a hive in my orange tree, called Eli the Bee Guy, Valeriy came quickly, and safely removed the hive to be relocated. Highly recommend their services! Thank You”

  • “Eli is really good at what he does. He's known to be a top notch bee removal specialist in the area, no regrets. If you need bees removed, especially live removals, not exterminations, he's the guy for the job. He did a removal on the floor of the shed, and not everyone can do this kind of work. Tough work! So, definitely recommend Eli.”

FAQ

La Palma bee removal questions

Do you service La Palma, CA?

Yes. La Palma is about 19 miles from my Orange County location, and I cover all of Orange 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 walls?

Yes, hives in wall cavities, chimneys and palm trees 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 La Palma?

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 La Palma?

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 La Palma too?

Yes. I take care of wasp and yellow jacket nests too, including aggressive ground nests near patios, pools and play areas.
