Emergency bee removal near me - Broward & Palm Beach

If bees are active right now, do this first

When someone calls me after hours, the first thing I ask is simple: where are the bees going in and out? That tells me whether you are looking at a passing swarm or a hive already established inside a wall, roofline, soffit, tree, shed, meter box, or business entrance.

  1. Do not spray the bees. Sprays can push bees deeper into a structure and make live removal harder.
  2. Do not seal the hole. Trapping bees and honeycomb inside can create odor, melted honey, ants, roaches, and repeat activity.
  3. Move people and pets away from the flight path. Keep doors and windows closed near the activity.
  4. Take a photo or short video from a safe distance. That helps me judge height, access, and urgency.
  5. Call a beekeeper-led removal company. The goal is to solve the safety problem and save the bees whenever possible.

When should you call for emergency bee removal?

Not every bee situation is an emergency. A swarm high in a tree may move on by itself. But if bees are near a doorway, pool, playground, patio, restaurant entrance, warehouse bay, school, church, or anywhere people have to walk, it is time to get help.

Emergency bee removal is also important when bees are entering a structure. Once a colony builds comb inside a wall, ceiling, roof, or soffit, the job is no longer just about the bees you can see outside. The comb has to be handled properly so the property does not attract more bees, ants, roaches, rodents, or moisture problems later.

Homes

Walls, attics, soffits, fascia, rooflines, sheds, trees, meter boxes, patios, pools, and play areas.

Businesses

Outdoor dining, storefronts, warehouses, offices, apartment communities, job sites, and customer entrances.

High-risk situations

Stings, aggressive activity, bees entering living spaces, kids or pets nearby, and blocked access to the property.

How I handle an after-hours bee emergency

I am Nick with GotBeez, and I come from a family of beekeepers. When the phone rings at night, I am not thinking like an exterminator. I am thinking like a beekeeper who has to protect the people on the property and still respect the colony.

The first thing I do is slow the situation down. I ask where the bees are entering, how long they have been there, whether anyone has been stung, and whether the hive is affecting a door, bedroom, business entrance, animal area, or work space. If the customer can send a photo, I look at the access before we roll out so we bring the right equipment.

On site, I watch the flight line before touching anything. Bees usually tell you where the hive is if you know how to read them. From there, we remove the bees alive whenever possible, remove honeycomb when it is inside a structure, and relocate the colony to our apiary instead of destroying it.

That is the GotBeez difference: the emergency gets solved, but the bees are not treated like trash. We remove and relocate because live bees still matter to South Florida.

Our emergency live bee removal process

1. Phone triage and photo review

We identify whether it looks like a swarm, an established hive, a structural colony, or an active safety issue.

2. Safe access and setup

We protect the area, plan the access, and avoid unnecessary damage. Some jobs need ladders, careful cutting, or high-reach equipment.

3. Live removal and honeycomb cleanup

For established hives, we remove the bees and comb. Leaving honeycomb behind can create bigger problems after the bees are gone.

4. Relocation and prevention guidance

When the colony can be saved, we relocate it. We also explain what should be sealed or repaired after the removal to reduce future activity.

How much does emergency bee removal cost?

Most live bee removal jobs range from $150 to $800+, but emergency pricing depends on where the hive is, how high it is, whether the bees are inside a structure, and whether honeycomb removal is needed. A swarm on a low branch is very different from a colony behind stucco on a second-story wall.

I would rather ask a few honest questions and give you a realistic quote than throw out a cheap number that changes when we arrive. If you can send a photo or video from a safe distance, that helps us quote faster.

Emergency bee removal FAQs

Is a swarm an emergency?

A swarm is urgent when it is near people, pets, doors, walkways, pools, playgrounds, or business entrances. If it is high in a tree and away from people, it may be less urgent, but you should still get guidance before it moves into a structure.

Should I spray the bees before GotBeez arrives?

No. Spraying can make bees defensive, scatter the colony, contaminate comb, and make live removal harder. Call first so we can guide you safely.

Can bees inside a wall or roof be removed alive?

Often, yes. We locate the colony, access the hive carefully, remove bees and honeycomb, and relocate the bees whenever possible.

Do you offer 24 hour bee removal in Broward County?

Yes. GotBeez offers same-day and 24/7 emergency bee removal throughout Broward County, including Davie, Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Coral Springs, Plantation, Weston, and nearby cities.

Yes. We serve Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, Lake Worth, Wellington, West Palm Beach, Jupiter, and surrounding Palm Beach County communities.

What if bees are coming inside the house?

Keep people and pets away from the room, close interior doors if you can do so safely, do not seal the outside entry point, and call immediately.

Can you help businesses after hours?

Yes. We handle restaurants, warehouses, retail centers, offices, apartment communities, schools, churches, and work sites where bees create an access or safety issue.
