Bee Removal Rickmansworth
EPC Pest Control Services
We specialise in Bee Removal in Rickmansworth, with over 30 years of experience in the industry we can quickly identify the problem and recommend the best solution to remove the bees without harming them. In rare circumstances we may have to destroy the bees nest.
Bees can be very difficult to remove if you are not experienced. Never attempt to remove bees yourself, this should only be done by experienced pest controllers or bee keepers. If bees swarm there could be thousands in one area which can cause serious harm.
Are Bees Protected?
It is a common misconception that bees are a protected species, they are endangered but none of the 250 species in the UK are protected. With this in mind we will always explore rehoming a swarm of bees first but this is not always possible. If the nest is in an inaccessible area and the bees pose a risk to health we are able to destroy the nest.

Our Treatment Programme
Bees are active between May and August and can nest in places such as compost heaps or underneath garden decking. We will always try our upmost to rehome the bees by collecting the swarm and relocating it. Some species of bee will not rehome though and sometimes the position of the nest and the threat posed means destroying the nest is the only option.
If a nest has to be destroyed we will remove what remains of the hive to ensure no others pests can inhabit the nest.
If a nest is left where it is causing problems there could be further problems down the line as multiple hives scatter around and increase the number of bees. Although honey bees can die out quickly, bumble bees are around for the whole Summer with any newly mated Queens waiting until the following year to build new hives.
