Identify Your Insect: Honey Bee vs. Yellow Jacket
KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
HONEY BEE REMOVAL
We specialize exclusively in honey bee removal and have a preferred referral partner to assist with other types of flying insects. If we arrive and determine the insects are not honey bees, a $150 service charge applies for travel and identification. We’ll explain your honey bee removal options, provide a free estimate, and, if we determine the issue involves another type of insect, we'll connect you with a trusted referral partner who can help.
