Call a Local Bee Removal Beekeeper     If the honeycomb is not removed, it will typically attract bees back each year. If it has been sealed off and the bees can't get in to the same spot, they will simply search around that structure until they find an additional opening. At times home owners buy homes that beehives have been killed in over and over without proper removal of the honeycomb. We have seen homes that had about 6 or more established beehives living in the structure, the homeowner just gave up on removing them due to the prior honey left in the wall after exterminations were done. Normally a house or building should get bees every 20 or so years, but if the hive is not removed from the structure, bees tend to come back every year. There are solutions at this point but they can be costly.  

Extraction methods vary widely depending on where and how the colony is situated (in the roof, eaves, between drywall). 

We vacuum or trap the bees and move them to one of our apiaries in the region where they can forage. Then we manually extract and dispose of all honeycombs. We do not do any carpentry or building repair involved in the extraction, but Lowe’s and Home Depot have contractor desks with referrals for specialists, or if you prefer you may use your own building repair expert. 

Call or email us for details. We travel anywhere in the South East Texas area.

Removing the honey and honeycomb  Removing the honey and bees yourself (if the hive has been killed) is possible but almost always a bad idea. It's a very messy job and after you finish repairs it is very likely that bees will still be attracted to that structure. When bees smell an old hive in the structure they think anywhere on that structure is now a good place to build a home. You can expect to get stung. After an effective eradication (if the bees are being killed) bees will continue to return to the hive from the fields, in addition there are hundreds of new bees hatching daily. After a week, the bees from the original hive should be gone; however bees from other colonies smell the melting honey and may come to free-load. If you are trying to save a buck or if you know a handyman or carpenter that can help, have the local bee keeper remove the honeycomb and leave your instructions on bee proofing it to the person doing the repairs.
