Monterey Park bee rescue
Live bee removal in Monterey Park, done all the way
Monterey Park is home to about 61,000 residents in Los Angeles County, and the honey bees like it here as much as the people do. When I get a call in Monterey Park, the colony is usually in sheds and garages, wall cavities or chimneys, and most people don’t know it’s there until they hear the buzzing.
Getting the bees out is only half of a Monterey Park 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.
Monterey Park is about 28 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.

From first call to bee-free

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

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.

“Eli helped us remove the bees that had colonized our roof. He has much experience in finding exactly where the beehive & honeycombs are located inside the roof & transferring the bees. Excellent service.”

“Very Fast, Prompt! Had bees coming into an old tiled wall fountain that had a hole in it early in the morning. Eli came to the house within 2-3 hours after calling/texting and was able to remove the swarm from the wall and helped patch the small entrance area! Safely guided all the bees out with care and precision! Love to see the care that is given to the bees. His knowledge and explanation of bees made me feel at ease and know that these fascinating creatures are not truly as scary as I thought they were. I truly recommend his services!”

“Eli the bee removal expert, was incredibly professional and calm throughout the entire process of removing the beehive that was discovered inside the walls of my home. From the moment he arrived, he reassured me that everything would be handled safely and there was nothing to worry about. I was shocked to see the hive had grown 12 inches wide and 18 inches inside my walls! Eli was upfront about the cost from the beginning and there were absolutely no hidden fees. He was always on time, answered every question I had, and made sure I understood each step of the process. His knowledge, honesty, and patience helped put me completely at easy during what could have been a very stressful situation. Thank you again, Eli for your outstanding service and for easing my fears. What could have turned into a serious and costly problem was handled professionally from start to finish. I highly recommend Eli to anyone who needs bee removal services. Rex from Chino.”

FAQ
Monterey Park bee removal questions
Do you offer bee removal in Monterey Park, CA?
Yes. Monterey Park is about 28 miles from my Ontario 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.
What if the hive is in my shed?
Yes, hives in sheds and garages, wall cavities and chimneys 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 Monterey Park?
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.
How fast can you get here?
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.
