San Diego, which is known for it's great climate, has been giving it's citizens some surprising weather these past few weeks. First we had a four day heat wave. Then the heat was enhanced by a dose of Monsoonal Humidity. Then it was followed by an unexpected summer storm. The storm caught America's Finest city off guard. [...]
Feminist, Female dominated, Matriarchal...all of these terms pretty much sum up society in a bee colony. Despite what movies like "The Bee Movie" portray, all worker bees are female. The only purpose of the Male (Drone) is to fertilize the queen. Once the drone achieves his purpose he dies immediately. If he fails to fertilize [...]
This blog goes out to all our customers who call us as a last resort after trying to take care of a bee problem themselves. Some people call you DIY'ers (Do it yourself). Others may call you crazy or brave, depending on who you talk to. We here at Bee Best like to call you [...]
People love to watch live bee removals. It happens quite a lot these days. Not too long ago, Jeff "The Bee Whisperer" Lutz was sent out to remove a swarm from under a table in the middle of a busy outdoor food court at the mall. During the removal, a crowd formed and people began recording [...]

Live Bee Removal is term that can be misleading. Depending on who you hire it may not mean what you think it does. You see, technically a live bee removal is when bees are alive during the removal process. It doesn't necessarily mean the bees will remain alive or be relocated to a safe place. [...]
Like a video game, removing a bee hive can be fun and challenging. Every job is different and so is the complexity depending on how hard the hive is to reach and how aggressive the bees are. Recently while editing footage of a live swarm removal, I noticed that one of the clips reminded me [...]
Can you tell the difference between a bee swarm and a bee hive? If not, don't worry. Most of the customers I speak with on the phone have no idea. Heck, before I worked here at Bee Best Bee Removal, I didn't have a clue either. So why is it important to know the difference? [...]
Water Meter Box, Valve Box, Irrigation Box....the thing in the ground with a green or purple lid. Whatever you prefer to call them makes no difference. Bees love to build hives in them no matter what the name!
