Recent Honey Bee Removal

Feb 6, 2009, Orlando, FL: We respond to a plea from the owner of Randall Made Knives near Orange Blossom Trail & Holden Ave. He has 2 very large aerial nests located 25 feet up in Oak trees on his property and he's concerned that the very cold weather will injure the bees. Our entomologist, Richard Martyniak & Winter Park Honey owner Scott Shurman perform the 2 intense live removals amidst an audience of local media.

Orlando Sentinel's Daphne Sashin's writes "Outfitted in white jumpsuits, rubber gloves and veils, Martyniak and Shurman stood 20 feet above the ground in a manlift, face to face with the first nest. Bees flew all around them. Before he started cutting, Martyniak sprayed plumes of smoke into the blobs of comb to keep the bees from sending alarm signals to each other" Read the rest of her article here. WESH 2 news covered our efforts to save these very large colonies as well. See that story here. The bees will be relocated to apiaries at Winter Park Honey.

Orlando's CF13 News' Scott Harris also ran a story and video. See that here

Bee Swarm season?

Mar 11 , 2009: It's spring here in parts of Florida and that means Bee Swarms are increasing in frequency. We've been recieving hundreds of calls a day about bee swarms that arrive within minutes..Their size is generally large this time of year, though in areas like Naples, Ft. Myers, Palm Beach and Stuart, we see bee swarms year-round. A Bee Swarm is normally just a method of reproduction --at the colony level. The picture of the left is a Miami honey bee swarm. When a bee colony gets too big for it's home, about 1/2 the hive will leave, taking the old queen with them. They will often temporarily land on a tree limb, side of a house or just about any location, while scout bees are looking for the best location to establish the newly formed colony. It's an amazing sight to see -- 20,000 or so bees moving to a branch within minutes. I've seen the sky darken with so many bees flying. African Bees will swarm in what's called migratory swarms. More on that later.

This picture shows an Orlando Florida honey bee swarm that has landed on a tree hole.( Click here for story).True swarms are usually gentle, as they have no home or young to defend, but please respect them, as often they start building external nests within the swarm and can become defensive at any time. Call us for swarm removal. You can trust the All Florida Bee removal.com team to give the best service, guaranteed! Call Toll Free 1-800-343-5317 or feel free to email us HERE.

Please DON'T spray bees with Wasp-Freeze !!

MARCH 19, 2008: This Sanford Bee Removal customer was told by the Local hardware store to use cans of Wasp Freeze on a swarm of bees that had moved in to her wall, right behind her electric meter. Please O' Please NEVER EVER use cans of insecticide on Bees ! You will incite thousands of honey bees to fly around the immediate area and maybe around your neighbors houses up and down your street. And then when you do call us to do the job correctly, it takes longer to control the little girls, which means a more expensive visit. Plus, we absolutely cannot attempt a live removal ( applicable only in northern Non africanized regions of the state ). Story and more pictures to follow.
