Bee Removal And Rehoming

FAQs

A bee’s nest can be active for years and years, with bees hibernating over winter, potentially causing significant structural damage over time from the weight of honey seeping into building fabric and beams. We do not recommend anyone who isn’t trained to remove any bumblebee or honeybee colonies, as it carries a huge risk of being damaged during removal and the colony not surviving. Also, the person removing the hive could be stung several times, which may be fatal.

It’s best to contact a specialist pest control company for this task. As experts in bee removal, BEEKIND™ can safely and efficiently remove bees from your property and rehome them to our apiary or a local beekeeper.

Production starts when flowers produce nectar. Honeybees store this nectar in their stomachs, where enzymes break down the sugars and increase acidity to prevent bacterial growth. The nectar becomes honey at 18% water content, which is then stored in wax chambers. 

It takes the entire lifetime of 12 bees to produce just one teaspoon of honey.

A female worker bee rarely stings, using it only as a last resort when cornered or if its nest is threatened. Male drone bees and the queen bee do not have stings. Worker honeybees’ pheromones can sense whether you’re calm or nervous, which may influence their behaviour.

Honeybees stop foraging when plants perish or temperatures drop too low for flight, relying instead on stored nectar and pollen to sustain the colony through winter. In spring, they eagerly resume their work, ensuring the colony’s survival and growth. 

Bees and wasps typically live for around 30 days in the summer, with bees living for around 3-4 months over the winter, varying depending on their role in the colony. In spring, the queen honeybee lays about 100 eggs daily, increasing to around 1500 to 2,000 during the height of summer, then decreasing back to 100 eggs by late autumn. This means the colony can range from 5000 to 60,000 bees in the hive at any time. Even in the winter!
