Orlando Bee Control in Tree Nesting Box

Orlando Bee Control in Tree Nesting Box
Honey bees, both Africanized & European subspecies, often build their nests in wildlife nesting boxes. These are boxes that are specially designed for many types of birds, otters, and other wildlife.

When used by wildlife for rearing young, they remain bee-free, but once the wildlife abandons the box, it becomes fair game for a roving bee swarm to set up shop!

Please, don't attempt a removal of bees, as they can be deadly, even swarms have attacked us since Killer Bees are now here. We've had fatalities occur in Florida because of improper stinging insect removal techniques.

Contact the Stinging Insect Experts at 321-206-5100 or 1-800-343-5317 or submit a bee removal FREE inspection here!

Pinellas County Bees in Bird Nest Box

One of the interesting African Honey Bee (AHB or "Killer Bee") behaviours we have been documenting, is their preference for voids that are smaller than what European Honey Bees (EHB) would choose to build nests in.

This photo shows honey bees, which are likely AHB, nesting inside a bird nest box.

Please, do not attempt to remove colonies of Honey Bees that are found in bird or wildlife nesting boxes. Give us a call at 1-800-343-5317 for professional, licensed and fast removals.
