It's been a while since I last posted a video that featured a local beekeeper who has received one of our bee swarm rescues. The video below was taken earlier this year. It features Beekeeping Society member John, who owns a small farm out in Jamul. He manages bee hives primarily to pollinate the avocado [...]
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? [...]

Where do you put the bees? It's a common question we get asked here at Bee Best Bee Removal. It's a question I love to answer! The majority of our swarms and hives are donated to a Co-Op Network dedicated to saving and rehabilitating feral bee swarms, but every now and then one of our [...]
One of the great things about working at Bee Best Bee Removal is that we get to help save the bees here in San Diego. There are a few different ways we are able to remove bees in a humane way. Sometimes we are able to smoke the bees into a box. Other times we [...]
