Protecting bees, safeguarding your property, and supporting local pollinators.
Live Honeybee Removal & Ethical Rehoming in Cornwall
We specialise in the safe, live removal and rehoming of honeybee colonies across Cornwall. Our approach is entirely ethical—every viable colony we remove is carefully relocated into managed apiaries, where they can continue to thrive.
With a deep understanding of honeybee behaviour and hands-on experience, we handle everything from swarms in gardens to established colonies in walls, roofs, and outbuildings. Our goal is simple: protect people, preserve bees, and support Cornwall’s fragile pollinator population.
What Sets Us Apart:
Local & Experienced – Based in Cornwall, we understand local bee behaviour and seasonal patterns
Fully trained and insured - Our removers are trained to the highest standards
Ethical Beekeeping – All rescued colonies are rehomed where possible into apiaries around Cornwall including our own
Property-Conscious Approach – We aim to minimise disruption and damage
Reliable & Responsive – Fast response times, especially during swarm season
How do we do this?
1. Survey
We start by identifying the type of bees and evaluating access, colony size, and location. A site survey will help us determine the safest approach.
2. Safe Removal
Using specialist tools and techniques, we carefully remove the colony—minimising stress to the bees and damage to your property wherever possible.
3. Transport & Rehoming
The bees are transferred into secure hive boxes and where possible relocated to one of our Cornwall apiaries.
4. Aftercare
We provide advice on preventing future nesting and can return if needed for follow-up checks.
Pricing
Each live honeybee removal job is unique, and as such, we tailor our pricing based on the specific circumstances of the job. Factors such as the size and accessibility of the colony, location, and any additional structural work required can all impact the cost. Whether it’s a simple swarm collection or a more complex colony removal from within a wall or roof, we assess every situation individually and provide you with a fair, competitive quote.
We always ensure our pricing is transparent, so you’ll know exactly what to expect before we start the job.
