If you're having problems with individual or small groups of stinging insects, chances are, they're not honey bees.
Honey bees swarm to increase their population. The swarms themselves are not inherently dangerous, the bees are not looking to attack, they're just looking for a new home.
Nonetheless, having a tree or roof eave full of honey bees can be diconcerting, so some of our member beekeepers would be willing to collect your swarm of honey bees.
There will be a charge for mileage and time required, so try to find a beekeeper on the list below who is close to you. Also, please understand that beekeeping is a hobby or very small business on the side, so many beekeepers do have other jobs, which can make it difficult to return your call immediately. But they will get back to you as quickly as possible.
Removing honey bees that have found a home inside your home, like in walls or in attics, can be very difficult because it may require some amount of demolition. Those names marked below with a double asterisk (**) have indicated that they have the resources to undertake these types of removals.
