Bye Bye Bees arranges fast, careful bee removal in El Cajon, including live removal, comb cutout and repair by a licensed and insured contractor.
On the hot valley floor bee activity is heavy, and same day help is often available during swarm season.
El Cajon sits in a bowl surrounded by hills, and summer afternoons regularly run far hotter than the coast. That heat drives colonies into shaded cavities such as wall interiors, block walls and the space under a patio cover. It also means long, strong seasons for wild colonies on the slopes around the valley.
East County is also where Africanized bees are a real concern. A UC San Diego study found that more than 60 percent of foraging honey bees sampled in San Diego County carried Africanized genetics. These colonies defend their nest hard, so stay back, keep kids and pets inside and let a trained crew handle it.
Much of El Cajon was built in the 1950s through 1970s: single story ranch homes with stucco, wood eaves and block walls separating yards. Fletcher Hills and Granite Hills add larger hillside lots with boulders, mature trees and detached garages.
Inside block walls, behind stucco walls near hose bibs and electrical boxes, under patio roofs, in water meter boxes and among the boulders and old trees in Fletcher Hills.
