Bee Removal in Lake Elsinore, CA
Bee Removal Pros serves the whole of Lake Elsinore. Live removal, not extermination.
Removing it early usually keeps the job quick and the cost down.
Not sure they can be saved? Honey bees are relocated whenever practical.
Getting it all out keeps the wall from rotting and the next colony from moving in.
Canyon Hills, Tuscany Hills, Rosetta Canyon, Summerly, and the rest of Lake Elsinore.
If it has wings and stings, call the Pros.
Bee stings and allergic reactions are a real danger, and a small hive can double in size in days. Don't wait.
What people in Lake Elsinore call us about
These are the most common calls we get from Lake Elsinore.
A swarm has settled on a fence line and nobody wants to open the gate.
Usually a fresh swarm, and the simplest kind of call we get.
Bees are going in and out of a gap under the roofline of an older lakefront house.
Steady traffic for weeks normally means comb behind the surface.
There is comb in a shed at the back of the lot and it keeps growing.
Visible comb means the colony has moved in for good.
Put a name to the problem
Swarm, hive, or wasp nest, each is its own job; find the one that fits.
Swarm Removal
A cluster stopped in the open with no comb started, often in one of the oaks. Collected live and relocated.
About swarm removal ->
Bees in Structures
A colony inside a wall or a chimney, usually through a gap an older home has opened up over the years. We find the colony, remove it and seal the gap behind it.
About bees in walls ->
Beehive Removal
An established hive out where you can point at the comb, on a limb or up under an eave. We take the whole thing down, comb included.
About beehive removal ->
Wasp & Yellow-Jacket Removal
Papery nests under eaves and deep in the shrubs, and yellow jackets working holes in the ground. We clear out both.
About wasp removal ->From first call to bee-free, in four simple steps.
Speed and cost are the whole question. This is how we handle both.
Send a photo or call
A photo texted with your address tells us a lot, or just call and describe where the bees are.
Get a clear estimate
Before any work starts you know the likely range, and what could push it up or down.
Remove bees and comb
We remove the bees alive whenever it's safe to do so, then strip out the comb and honey so nothing is left behind.
Prevent repeat activity
We clean the cavity and go over which gaps to seal. Older homes have a few.
What bee season looks like in Lake Elsinore
Lake Elsinore has older, smaller homes, and it has large canyon properties with heavy tree cover. Bees find both. In an older home, a gap in the wall has had years to open up.
Older homes are why so many Lake Elsinore calls are bees in a wall instead of a swarm in a tree. A soffit that has moved, a vent screen that has gone, trim that has pulled away from the wall: any of them is a door, and by the time the traffic is obvious there is usually comb behind it.
The tree cover on the canyon properties is heavy enough that a swarm has its pick of places to stop, and a cluster hanging in an oak off one of the canyon roads can go days without anyone passing close enough to spot it.

Questions we get from this area
Still unsure after reading these? Call and ask, advice is free.
Do you come out to the canyon side? +
Yes, we cover the whole city, canyons included. In the canyons a swarm usually stops in the heavy tree cover. In an older home, bees are more often inside a wall or a roofline.
Can you come out the same day? +
The honest answer is ask, because it changes by the day. A same-day visit to Lake Elsinore is often possible, but today’s yes or no turns on how many jobs are ahead of yours. Call as soon as you see the bees; you will know where you stand before you hang up.
Do you kill the bees? +
No. Honey bees are removed alive and relocated rather than exterminated, and that is how this business works. Wasps and yellow jackets are handled differently, as a safety problem, because a wasp nest cannot be rehomed the way a bee colony can.
What should I expect to pay? +
There is no set price, because no two jobs are the same size. A cluster that landed on a branch yesterday comes off quickly; comb that has been building behind the trim of an older house takes real time, and the cost reflects that. Estimates are free, so the accurate answer starts with a look at yours.
Do you carry a license and insurance? +
Yes to both. The work also comes with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, and Chris, the owner, has over 10 years of bee removal experience in Southern California. If the bees have been in a wall for a while, the removal is a bigger job, and that is exactly when those things are worth asking about.
