Bees play a vital role in pollination, but when they nest too close to homes or businesses, they can become a safety hazard. In Australia, we see European honeybees, native stingless bees, and occasionally aggressive species like Africanized bees. While we protect pollinators, problematic hives near high-traffic areas often require professional relocation or removal. Australia has over 1,700 native bee species plus introduced European honeybees. While most are docile, swarms near homes or aggressive species like Africanized bees require professional attention. Bees can cause structural damage by building large hives in cavities, and their stings pose serious risks to allergy sufferers. We prioritize live relocation for honeybees (working with local beekeepers) and only remove nests when absolutely necessary. For inaccessible or dangerous hives, we use eco-friendly treatments while protecting local ecosystems. Remember: never disturb a bee colony yourself – swarms can become defensive quickly.
