COBA Beekeeper Partnerships
Do you remove honey bees without harming them?
Yes. Whenever possible, we use live removal methods and partner with COBA (Central Ohio Beekeepers Association) and local beekeepers to safely relocate healthy honey bee colonies rather than destroy them.
Can you remove a hive from inside my walls or attic?
Yes. We regularly remove honey bee colonies from walls, attics, soffits, chimneys, and other structural spaces. We also remove the honeycomb when necessary to help prevent future infestations and pest problems.
Will the bees come back after the hive is removed?
Simply removing the bees isn't enough. We remove the hive, clean and treat the cavity, seal entry points, and insulate the space to greatly reduce the likelihood of bees returning. This work is backed by our 5-year warranty.
How do I know if I have honey bees or wasps?
Honey bees are fuzzy, golden-brown pollinators that are generally calm unless their hive is disturbed. Wasps have smooth bodies, narrow waists, and are typically more aggressive. HomeShield Ohio specializes only in honey bee relocation and does not remove wasps or other stinging insects.
How long does honey bee removal take?
Most removals can be completed in about half a day once work begins. After your inspection and estimate, we can typically schedule your service within approximately one week, depending on availability.
Why is professional honey bee removal important?
Attempting to remove a hive yourself can be dangerous and often leaves behind honeycomb that attracts new swarms or other pests. Professional removal safely protects your home while helping preserve valuable honey bee populations.
Are honey bees protected?
Honey bees are valuable pollinators and are protected or regulated in many areas. Whenever possible, we follow humane relocation practices and work with COBA and local beekeepers to relocate colonies where they can continue benefiting the environment.
How much does honey bee relocation cost?
Pricing depends on the hive's size, location, and accessibility. We provide a detailed inspection and upfront estimate before any work begins, so you know exactly what to expect.
