Vegas Bees: Prioritizing Safety Above All
Is bee removal safe?​
​
-
Your safety is our top priority. We use professional protective gear and eco-friendly methods to ensure the well-being for you, your property, and the bees. Our service prevents future infestations too.
​
Should I try removing bees myself?
​
-
We don't recommend it. Removing hives safely requires protective equipment and bee-handling experience. Attempting it yourself can be dangerous, especially with defensive bee species.
​
How fast can you respond?
-
We strive to respond within 24 hours for bee removal calls. For urgent cases, we offer emergency removal services and can be onsite even faster to restore peace of mind.​
​What happens to the bees after removal?
-
We humanely relocate the bees to an apiary suited to their colony size and temperament. There, they can thrive and continue their vital pollination.
​
Why save bees through removal vs exterminating?
-
Many homeowners exterminate bees on their properties, but this harms already declining bee populations essential for our food supply and ecosystems. We believe in sustainable beekeeping through live removal and relocation.

Can the Bees Return? Addressing Your Concerns
​​
Will bees return after removal?​
-
No, bees won't reinfest the area after we perform removal and take preventative measures. Some scout bees may temporarily investigate, but that's normal behavior.
​
Do you sell local Las Vegas honey?
-
Yes! Our raw, unfiltered honey comes straight from hives around the valley. It makes all recipes a little sweeter. Check out our Las Vegas Local Honey for Sale.
​
Do you offer free bee removal?
-
We previously offered free removal but discontinued that in June 2022. However, we strive to keep prices affordable for homeowners in need.
Why are bees at my pool?
​
-
When it gets hot, bees need water to cool off, just like us. Pools can attract them but we can safely remove and relocate these thirsty pollinators. Here’s more on bees and swimming pools.
​
Who are your favorite YouTube beekeepers?
​
-
We love Mr. Ed's Beekeeping - great educational content! 628 DirtRooster is another favorite channel of ours for entertaining bee videos. Vegas Bees is our fun and quirky channel.
