Visual Signs:
- Swarming: A large cluster of bees hanging from a tree branch, building, or other structure.
- Hive Entrance: A small, round hole in wood, siding, or brick.
- Honeycomb: Visible honeycomb or wax structures inside or around the hive.
- Bees flying in and out: Constant activity of bees entering and exiting a specific area.
Auditory Signs:
- Buzzing: A constant buzzing sound coming from a specific location.
- Humming: A low, continuous humming noise.
If you notice any of these signs, contact Bee Removal Melbourne to assess the situation and safely remove the bees.
What to Do if You Find a Bee Swarm?
If you encounter a swarm of bees on your property, follow these safety guidelines until professionals can remove them:
- Keep children and pets inside.
- If bees enter a building, seal off that area.
- Wear shoes to avoid stepping on bees.
- Keep pets away, as bee stings can be dangerous or even fatal to animals.
- Avoid handling the swarm yourself. Contact our team for professional removal.
Understanding Honey Bee Swarming Process
In one line, a honey bee swarm is a natural event where a mature colony splits into two.
Overcrowding: As the hive’s population grows, there may not be enough space for bees, food, and brood, leading to the need for bee hive removal to prevent bee infestation.
Aging Queen: The queen’s pheromones weaken as she ages, usually after 2-3 years, resulting in a loss of control over the colony and an increased likelihood of bee swarm removal.
Resource Scarcity: A colony may swarm if it cannot find enough food sources, seeking new territory to avoid further bee control issues.
- Bees prepare for swarming by building queen cells in the hive, filled with royal jelly to support the development of new queens, potentially creating a need for bee nest removal.
- The old queen leaves the hive with a large group of worker bees, often clustering on a nearby branch or structure, requiring professional bee removal services in Melbourne.
- Scout bees search for a suitable new home, like a hollow tree or man-made structure, sometimes leading to emergency bee removal services in Melbourne.
- Once a suitable location is found, the swarm relocates, and the queen starts laying eggs while the worker bees begin building comb and collecting food, requiring preventative bee control measures.
Encountering a Bee Swarm in Melbourne?
If you come across a swarm, it’s best to leave it alone. Swarming bees are generally docile and not aggressive. However, if the swarm is located in a dangerous or inconvenient place, contact Bee Removal Melbourne for professional bee relocation services.
Our Bee Removal Process
Assessment
Our beekeeper will inspect the hive to determine its size, location and the type of bees involved.
Preparation
The beekeeper will gather necessary equipment, such as beekeeping suit, gloves, smokers, hive boxes and tools.
Bee Removal
The beekeeper will use a smoker to calm the bees and make them less aggressive. They will carefully remove the honeycomb and bees from the hive, often using specialized tools or vacuum equipment. The queen bee will be identified and relocated to the new hive.
Hive Relocation
The bees and honeycomb will be transferred to a prepared hive box. The new hive will be placed in a suitable location, often on the beekeeper's property or a nearby apiary.
Every bee relocation helps preserve these essential pollinators, ensuring our world continues to flourish. Do the right thing! Organise a safe bee removal now
Melbourne’s Trusted Bee Removal Services
In Melbourne, bees are crucial for pollinating plants and producing honey, but they can also present challenges, especially during spring when swarms become more common. Invasive species, like the Asian honey bee, can disrupt local pollination and compete with native bees, creating problems for both the environment and property owners. While bees play an essential role in the ecosystem, their stings can cause severe allergic reactions. Additionally, bees nesting in structures, such as wall cavities, can lead to significant property damage and financial losses. At Bee Removal Melbourne, we carefully balance protecting these vital insects with ensuring your safety making us a trusted bee relocation service.
