LOCAL BEE REMOVERS & BEE REMOVAL INFORMATION |
|
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Currently, the state
of Florida recommends that all wild (or feral) honey bee colonies
found in proximity to people (in walls, birdhouses, trees, etc.) be
eradicated by a certified Pest Control Operator. Just because
a colony is calm now doesn't mean that it will always be.
Killing of wild bees has nothing to do with the problem of
disappearance of managed bee colonies. Eradicating
one wild honey bee nest in Florida does nothing to hurt honey bee
populations overall.

Saving wild bees is unrelated to the disappearance of managed honey bee
colonies.
