BEE REMOVALS
Die Bye Boer offers safe and ethical bee removal and hive relocation services in Gauteng and Nelspruit. Our experienced team, with a background in working at heights, specializes in handling even the most complex bee removals. We provide two methods for bee removal: vacuum removal, using a specialized vacuum to gently relocate bees, and out trap removal for safe extraction. Trust our experts to safely remove bees without causing damage to your property.
VACUUM REMOVAL
Vacuum bee removal is a specialized technique that uses a custom vacuum box to safely capture and relocate bees. This method requires easy access to the bees’ location, ensuring minimal disruption to the surrounding structure or property. It’s an effective, non-invasive way to remove and relocate bees safely, protecting both the bees and your property.
THE OUT TRAP METHOD
The out-trap method is used when the bee nest is in a location that makes safe removal difficult or when structural damage is a concern. An external trap box is set up to safely capture and remove the bees over a period of up to two months. This method is ideal for situations where vacuum removal isn’t possible.
Vacuum removals are typically done at night to minimize bee mortality and reduce the risk to humans and animals. Weather conditions also play a key role; if there’s rain or a cold front expected on the day of removal or within the next three days, the removal will be postponed. We prioritize safe bee relocation and ensure that relocated bees can adapt to their new environment.
For safe bee removal and relocation services, contact us at 082 563 1442 or email sales@diebyeboer.com. Please provide the following information:
- Location of the bee nest (pin or coordinates)
- Photos or video of the nest and surrounding area
- Duration of the nest’s presence (new swarms are easier to relocate than established hives)
- Availability of electricity on-site for the vacuum system
- Contact details for after-hours access
We are proud to partner with Height Safe 360, who sponsors a certain number of removals. Ask us about sponsorship options. We can also relocate bees from undesirable locations into a box hive for settlement on a suitable property. The hive area must be cleaned and sealed to prevent the bees from returning, a process that takes approximately one week.
