Norco bee rescue
Live bee removal in Norco, done all the way
Most of the hives I take out in Norco 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 Norco 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.
Norco is about 9 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.

“Eli quickly and humanely removed the bees that were invading the inside of my home. They have since flown away to make their home elsewhere. He was reasonably priced and came quickly. WONDERFUL service, so glad to have my bedroom back!”

“We had a small problem when having the trees trimmed. Eli took care of extracting the hive without any harm to the bees. Very professional. We are very happy. Thank you.”

“I had 2 large swarms of bees in my palm tree, right outside my backdoor!! I called Eli and he came out the same day. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. His service was fast and efficient. He removed both swarms and determined the location of the main hive lingering in my retainer wall. I will definitely be calling him in the future. I highly recommend his service, and appreciate his knowledge and care in rehoming these amazing pollinators that benefit us all.”

“Found out I had bees trying to live in my exterior bathroom vent. Eli answered my email request and was able to respond out quickly. He explained the plan to trap them and answered my questions. Once the trap was in place, I realized how much more of a problem I had! Luckily, the bees had not totally 'moved in' so the 'eviction process' started working quickly. No invasive 'wall/stucco demo' situation for me, thank goodness! It did take about 10 days to get the little buggers totally gone, but i was fine with that. Thanks, Eli!”

“Eli was amazing to work with. When I was describing our bee problem, he asked all the questions and was very thorough in his explanation of what needed to be done. He was true to his word and came out that very day. He immediately took care of the problem and explained every step to us. I would recommend his Bee service to anyone that has a bee problem!”

FAQ
Norco bee removal questions
Is Eli the Bee Guy available in Norco?
Yes. Norco is about 9 miles from my Ontario location, and I cover all of Riverside 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 Norco?
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 Norco?
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.
