Bee Removal Specialist

I called Ron the Bee Specialist for a bee swarm on my fence out in Malibu, and he was out there within the hour. He was courteous, quick and reasonably priced. The bees were removed in an eco-​friendly way, and I was very pleased. I would highly recommend him.

Long review but worth reading the whole thing! I was so determined 2 find a bee keeper that wouldn’t kill ALL the bees that I decided 2 make about 10 phone calls b4 finding The Bee Removal Specialist. I started on google reading about many bee companies that would relocate the bees (w/​o killing them) but after reading Unilocal reviews, I was concerned. So I started reading about bee hive farmers who take care of bees for honey production specifically Mr. B Rhodes. It was so easy to get email or phone numbers for bee keepers that I read articles about, that I just started calling them all & asking who they would suggest me to use. After talking to many bee keepers I had 2 wait on some of them 2 return my phone calls. Then I decided to run an errand & I drove past a truck that said, «The Valley Hive» on it, took down the number, called & asked the lady does she remove bees safely without killing them, she said no… we are bee hive farmers, but I know a company who does safe removal & he brings us the bees! Wow, I was elated! Save my bees please! I called Ron on May 2, 2015 & within 24hrs he sent over Jonathan (awesome guy). The bees were under my deck, about 3,000 bees. Jonathan only cut a small plank out of the deck, then he took all the honeycomb out, put it in a ventilated box & waited for the bees 2 follow the comb. After about 1hr 15min almost all the bees were in the box. He carried them away. He said that the left over bees will usually die within 40 days because they cant live without the queen bee, but if the bees decide to re-​nest then its because he didnt get the queen or a new queen was found & brought to the new hive. He suggested I wait 10 days b4 calling him back (if I have leftover bees because sometimes it takes the bees awhile 2 decide what they are gonna do. My husband & I decided (for safety) to spray insecticide on the leftover bees because we have 4 children & several tenants on our property. Since then all the bees are gone & I feel blessed that we were able 2 save 3,000 of them. Price was $ 250 & I knew I could get bee removal cheaper if someone killed my bees, but I chose 2 spend the money & save as many bees as possible because we desperately NEED those bees, & so will our children & grandchildren NEED them after we are gone. * I even called The Valley Hive & made sure Ron brought her my bees. Remember to read more than 1 or 2 reviews b4 making a decision on any company because there will always be Haters out there. do your research & I recommend The BEE SPECIALIST RON!!!

I contacted Bee Specialist and spoke with Ron. He had his technician go to make an assessment of our bee problem the next day. We spoke on the phone after he spoke with his technician and due to the fact that the colony was well-​established, it was going to be more expensive and complicated to remove the hive than we were able to do. So the other alternative was what he called an «expulsion» in which they apply organic almond oil. He said the bees don’t like it and «they leave.» That’s all he told me. He said «they leave.» What he didn’t tell me is that they leave mad, and they swarm, and that the area isn’t habitable by human or animal for at least 24 hours, probably longer. I had workers completing a fence in the back yard when the bees left mad and swarming, and they were not able to complete the job due to its proximity to the bees, hundreds of bees. When I contacted Ron he said there wasn’t anyone there when his guy was there or he would have warned me. Well someone lied; either his guy or Ron. Because his guy spoke with my contractor while they were working on the fence. So they knew there were people there. I called him to complain, and he took no personal responsibility as the business owner to acknowledge that he should always tell people what to expect when they do an expulsion. He was rude and condescending, and I could not be more displeased with this company.

Ron, the owner, was great! He made his way all the way down to Torrance to help me when I had a been hive to remove. He had to come back to help remove the residual bees that stayed… But he made it a priority.
I am so thankful for Ron and highly recommend this company to anyone who wants to save the bees!

I hired Ron to remove a few small wasps nests from outside my home. He came when no one was home and claimed to have done the job. When I got home the nests were still there. I called and he told me it would be about a week before anyone would be able to come back out and he wouldn’t send anyone out at all until I paid him for the «service» he already provided. He wanted me to give my credit card info over the phone so he could charge me for a job he didn’t accomplish. No, thank you.

Really glad I called the Bee Removal Specialist, we had a gigantic swarm very high up on our building. While I needed them gone, it was important to us to know that they were not going to be destroyed.
Ron came out at the arranged time and removed them, taking them off to a hive in Sunland. The height was no problem and the queen was captured too, and all my questions were answered. Much to recommend with this company.

These guys came out, super knowledgeable on the work. They were able to beat a competitor’s quote and got the job done in a day. At the end of the day, they were able to remove two hives from the roof of our house, took a lot of pictures, and patched everything up nicely. Mike came back later for a courtesy check. No more bees for us, strongly recommend them for any bee removal service.

If you’ve ever had bees coming out of light fixtures, you know that this is not something that can wait for another day. Within a couple of hours of my call, two bee specialists came to my house, gave me a clear, free estimate, which I accepted, and then went to work to solve the problem. Not only were the two specialists extremely competent, they also struck me as having a great deal of integrity. (This is really important when you’re hiring someone to do something that you know nothing about.) When the extent of the infestation was discovered to be more involved than originally thought, I was given an updated estimate and a clear explanation of the additional work and expected cost. I would definitely recommend this company to my friends and family.

I have nothing but good things to say about Ron, Mike and the crew at Bee Removal Specialists.
I discovered a large swarm of bees coming out of a hard to see vent in my back house. I called Bee Removal Specialists and spoke with Ron. Within two hours I had someone on site inspecting the property and dialing in the exact location. a two to three year old hive nested in the walls of the property! The crew from Bee Removal Specialists showed up on time and within a few hours had removed a very clean chunk from the wall with minimal damage to the surround lathe and plaster. Then, they carefully packed the entire hive in a box and placed it next to the bees old entry point where we let it sit long enough for the bees to reorientate themselves to the new hive location. Finally, the entire hive was removed safely and securely from the property.
Ron and his crew were thoughtful, educated and very professional throughout the entire process. I will recommend Bee Removal Specialists to anyone in need of professional, reasonably priced bee removal services. Thanks for a job well done!

Ron at Bee Specialist was extremely helpful and courteous. We had a swarm at our Preschool in the play yard and needed it removed quickly to get the children back to their normal routine. He was able to send someone the quickest, so he got the job! We will definitely recommend his service to anyone who needs fast, reliable bee removal. Best of all, the bees were relocated to a new home, rather than killed. Yay! Bzzz…

Great Company.
We had a bee swarm/​hive building in our backyard on a Sarurday. I placed a call to Bee Removal Specialists and left a message for Ron. I recieved a call back within five (5) minutes. Ron (the «Bee Guy») was on site within two hours. He was professional, courteous and efficient. The bee removal was done within the quoted price. Bees were removed and life is good.
I would and will recomend Bee Removal Specialist to anyone who has a bee problem.
