From Otay Mesa to Rancho Bernardo, Bye Bye Bees books live bee removal, hive cutout and repair for homes and businesses anywhere inside San Diego city limits.
Tell us where the bees are, and a licensed and insured contractor crew can often be at your door the same day during swarm season.
San Diego is a city of mesas split by canyons, and those canyons are bee highways. Tecolote Canyon, Rose Canyon and Florida Canyon hold wild colonies in the brush and eucalyptus, and every spring their swarms drift into the homes that line the rims. A colony that settled in a canyon oak last year may send a swarm into your stucco this April.
The housing mix makes the problem worse. Craftsman bungalows in North Park and Normal Heights have old wood siding and gaps around rafter tails. Postwar ranch homes in Clairemont and Serra Mesa have stucco that has cracked over seventy years. Newer tile roofed tracts in Mira Mesa and Carmel Mountain Ranch hide bees under the barrel tiles. Every era of San Diego home gives bees a different way in.
This page is the hub for every neighborhood we cover inside the city. Choose yours for local details:
The most common call in the city is bees in a wall, usually stucco with a weep screed gap or a cracked corner. Next come roof eaves on older homes, the space under clay tiles on newer ones, and the concrete water meter boxes that sit in nearly every San Diego parkway.
Tell us where the bees are and how long they have been there. We reply fast with a free quote.
We remove the bees alive whenever possible and relocate the colony to a local beekeeper.
Every piece of honeycomb comes out so it cannot melt, stain or draw new bees.
A licensed and insured contractor repairs the opening and seals the entry point.
Yes. We take calls from every neighborhood inside city limits, from the coast to the eastern mesas, and route each job to the crew nearest you.
Wild colonies in the canyon below send out new swarms each spring, and an old nest cavity still smells like home to them. Removing all the comb and sealing the opening is what breaks that cycle.
Many are. A UC San Diego study found that more than 60 percent of foraging honey bees sampled in San Diego County carried Africanized genetics, so keep your distance and let a trained crew handle the colony.
Yes. Property managers and landlords book with us often, and we can coordinate access with tenants.
