Although our service specializes exclusively in the live removal and relocation of honey bees, we begin every call with a thorough on-site assessment to accurately identify the species occupying your property. We use non-invasive inspection techniques to confirm whether the colony consists of honey bees (Apis mellifera). If verified as honey bees, we then use thermal imaging and image scoping to determine the extent of their habitat and can proceed with humane extraction, full comb removal, and safe relocation to a managed apiary—ensuring both your peace of mind and the colony’s survival. Should the insects prove to be another species (such as wasps, hornets, or bumblebees), we will provide professional guidance and, when appropriate, refer you to specialized exterminators. This precise identification process guarantees ethical treatment, regulatory compliance, and the most effective resolution for your situation.
