Our passion for the honey bee is the driving force behind all that we do here at 3Beez Honey Farm. As a fourth generation bee keeper, it is up to me to help ensure that the bees not only succeed but also thrive during such challenging times. They are up against environmental stressors such as parasites, disease, pesticides and loss of habitat to name a few. This is why you see less and less native bees in our ever changing environment. To counter act these devastating loses, we have a philosophy as bee keepers to try and co-exist with the honey bees. The vast majority of bee removals I have incurred have a dramatic affect on their survival rate. Only a small percentage of removals survive transplanting them into a new location due to the bees not having the needed components from their prior hive to sustain the loses and the needs of the hive, such as brood (baby bees), pollen and nectar. So very often when I receive inquires of bee removals, I try my best to talk the customer into leaving the bees where they are and monitor them periodically to see if they have swarmed off. Often times they will only stay a few months and once they leave, the customer can seal up their entrance so another swarm of bees don't take up refuge at their home again. This is the best situation for the bees and home owners.....co-existing for the good of the planet. This is what we recommend!! Often customers think they are allergic to bees because they swell up when stung. Swelling and pain are very typical of bee stings and will go away with some ice and a little bit of time. Only around 1% of the worlds populations of humans are allergic to bee stings. After saying that, I do offer bee removal services. We do charge for our time as we are licensed and insured. Our standard fee is $300 for bee removals for the first hour. Most removals are done in the hour or less range with more extensive removals costing slightly more.
