Mr.JAJA 380 Posted August 7, 2017 Hi, I have a request and hope than someone can point me to the right guy. I have a Bee hive in a owl box and nee to have this remove for Renter safety reason. I had some contacts from the SDAR List but at this point no susses to have a Bee Keeper coming out and remove the hive. I can lower the Box to the ground with a pulley system. The box can be detach. If you know of some Bee Keeper please contact me. The hive is in Poway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't suggest distroying them. And polinators are not limited to only honey bees. What are Pollinators and Why Do We Need Them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bikeslut 1 Posted August 7, 2017 What is Andy's screen name? He's a beekeeper. He can probably rehome them... are they particularly aggressive? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dylan 0 Posted August 7, 2017 Years ago I couldn't get anyone to come remove a beehive, so I dropped it into a 55 gallon trashcan and rehomed them myselves. That is definitely not plan A. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wintyfresh 46 Posted August 7, 2017 Hi Udo, Did you contact Gabriel Velasquez? He saw your hive on the San Diego Beekeeping FB group and was potentially interested in taking the hive for free. Some had also wondered if they could take the box. For professional removal I recommend Rex @ Bemergency Bee Removal (760)789-2755. He's a neighbor of mine and has done good work for several people who've asked me for a recommendation in the past.https://www.yelp.com/biz/bemergency-bee-removal-ramona Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alyeska 50 Posted August 7, 2017 1-760-500-5121 used them last year when I had a major bee infestation in the roof facia of my garage, stucco had to be cut out and a hive weighing over 40 pounds was removed and they even repaired and re stucco my facia wall, very reasonable and professional. Cant remember his name but mention the house in Borrego and Im sure he will never forget it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
