Newport Beach bee rescue

Live bee removal in Newport Beach, done all the way

What a swarm wants, in Newport Beach or anywhere else in Orange County, is a dry, protected cavity, and attics, block walls and spaces under decks and patios all fit the bill. After they’ve built comb in there, that colony isn’t leaving on its own.

Getting the bees out is only half of a Newport Beach 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.

Newport Beach is about 4 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.

FAQ

Newport Beach bee removal questions

Is Eli the Bee Guy available in Newport Beach?

Yes. Newport Beach is about 4 miles from my Orange County location, and I cover all of Orange County. Call (626) 487-6052 to set up a free inspection.

Are the bees killed or relocated?

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 remove bees from inside a wall or roof in Newport Beach?

Yes, hives in attics, block walls and spaces under decks and patios 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 Newport Beach?

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.
