Bee Swarm Removal

Is there a strange buzzing noise coming from the laundry wall? A cluster of brown and gold creatures gathered on your jacaranda? Bees setting up home in your compost? Sounds like you’ve got a beautiful bee swarm or colony.

Maybe these bees have just shown up and are not sure where they’ll set up home, or maybe they’ve been in your wall for a while and have started to build honey comb and grow their colony.

First things first, don’t panic. Those bees aren’t interested in attacking you, they’re just looking for a new place to set up their home. Give them a wide berth, don’t irritate them with water or insecticides and close the window or door to keep them out of the house.

Here at The Practical Beekeeper we believe in rescuing swarms of bees and collecting colonies and giving them a new, safe home. We operate a rescue service across the northern suburbs of Melbourne. If you’d like us to rescue those bees from your house just give us a call.
