Why bees in Southern Arizona are a safety issue
Many wild honey bee colonies in Southern Arizona are Africanized, which means they defend their hive far more aggressively than European honey bees. A swarm on an eave, in a wall void, or in a water meter box near kids, pets, or a doorway shouldn’t be approached or sprayed by a homeowner. Keep people and pets away and call a professional.
What we do
- Assess the colony and location safely.
- Remove or treat the colony per the situation.
- Remove the nest/comb where accessible and advise on sealing the void so a new swarm doesn’t move in.
Don’t do this yourself
Store-bought sprays often just agitate an Africanized colony, and hidden comb left in a wall attracts pests and the next swarm. Professional removal is safer and more permanent. Access difficulty (height, wall voids) is the biggest cost factor — most jobs run from about $100 to $400+.
Frequently asked questions
Do you offer same-day bee removal?
Yes, we prioritize active swarms and hives for same-day service when possible.
Are the bees Africanized?
Many feral colonies here are; we treat every colony as defensive for safety.
Should I spray the hive myself?
No — it’s dangerous and usually makes the colony more aggressive. Keep your distance and call us.
Will the bees come back?
Removing the comb and sealing the void is what prevents a repeat; we’ll advise on that.
Active Swarm? Don’t Wait.
