Start with what you see
Where have the bees
moved in?
You don’t need to identify the hive yourself. Tell us where you’re seeing activity, and share a photo from a safe distance if you can.

Colony care with We Save Bees: a newspaper hive combine.
Bee removal in Encinitas
Rescue is one step.
Colony care continues.
The hero photo shows an established colony among tree branches, with exposed comb beneath the bees. A temporary swarm and a colony that has built comb require different assessments. Tell us the approximate height, the space around the tree, and whether people normally walk or work below it.
In the video, our team demonstrates a newspaper hive combine, which gives colonies time to mix gradually. Newspaper is not a way for a homeowner to calm bees at a property, and it does not change bee genetics. Leave defensive colonies undisturbed and contact us for an estimate.

We will discuss the access.
Encinitas brings together Old Encinitas, New Encinitas, Leucadia, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, and Olivenhain. Share your neighborhood and describe the property itself: a tree beside a walkway, bees entering an eave, or a colony in a yard enclosure. Access and nearby activity help us understand the project.

For a colony in a tree
Take any photos from the ground. Do not trim branches, climb, shake the cluster, or spray the bees to get a clearer view. Visible comb, height, and surrounding obstacles help determine the next steps.
For bees inside a building
Describe the entry point and any previous treatment or repairs. We can discuss whether an opening may be needed, how accessible comb will be removed, and what sealing or repair arrangements belong in your estimate.

Let’s talk about cost
The location matters.
So does the access.
There isn’t one price that fits every bee removal. A cluster on a reachable branch and a colony behind a roof can require very different work.
Share your project details so we can explain what affects your estimate.

Before you reach out
A few helpful
answers.
Still unsure? Describe the situation in the estimate form.
Do you provide live bee removal in Encinitas?
Yes. We Save Bees serves Encinitas with live honey bee removal and relocation for residential and commercial properties. Tell us where the bees are so we can review your project.
Can I get an estimate from photos?
Photos can help us understand the location and access. Hidden comb or difficult structural access may require more information or an on-site estimate before the scope and price can be confirmed.
What photos are useful?
A wider view showing the location and a closer view taken safely from a distance can help. Don’t open a box, climb, remove a panel, or disturb the colony to get a photo.
Will the opening or damaged area need repair?
Some projects require an opening to reach the colony. Ask what access, cleanup, sealing, and repair work is included in your specific estimate before work begins.
What if I’m not sure they’re honey bees?
Choose “Not Sure” in the form and describe the activity. Share an optional photo if it’s safe to do so. We may need more information to identify the appropriate next step.
Can you tell whether bees are Africanized from a photo?
A routine property photo cannot confirm Africanized ancestry. Describe any defensive behavior without approaching or testing the colony. Our estimate focuses on the situation, access, and the work needed to handle the bees.
