Commercial Bee Removal

Bees are indispensable pollinators, supporting agriculture and the environment, but their presence near high-traffic areas can pose safety risks…especially in Arizona, where Africanized honeybees account for nearly 100% of the feral population. Business owners have a unique responsibility to balance public safety with environmental stewardship. Blue Sky Pest Control is here to help.

Our Approach To Bees

Guided by science. Perfected through experience.

1
Inspect

A comprehensive inspection identifies areas where bees are active or nesting. Our team assesses your property, including buildings, trees, and crevices, to locate potential hive sites and evaluate the level of bee activity. This thorough assessment helps us understand the risks and tailor our approach accordingly.

2
Plan

Based on our findings, we create a customized bee management plan that prioritizes safety and sustainability. This plan includes strategies for safe colony relocation, mitigation of risks in high-traffic areas, and, if necessary, targeted treatments for aggressive or hazardous colonies.

3
Execute

We implement the plan using proven, humane methods possible. When possible, we relocate bee colonies to protect these vital pollinators. For more aggressive colonies that pose immediate threats, we apply targeted treatments to ensure the safety of your property while minimizing environmental impact.

4
Monitor

We provide ongoing monitoring to ensure the infestation is fully resolved and to prevent future issues. Regular follow-ups allow us to adapt treatments as needed, maintaining consistent, long-term protection for your business.

Apis mellifera scutellata hybrid

Africanized Honeybee

Common throughout the state, including urban, suburban, and rural areas. They thrive in Arizona’s warm climate.

Moderate to High – While their venom is no more potent than that of European honeybees, Africanized honeybees are far more defensive. They attack in larger numbers, which can result in dangerous or even fatal situations for humans, especially in high-traffic areas.

Slightly smaller than European honeybees, with a similar golden-brown and black striped appearance. Their aggressive behavior, rather than physical traits, sets them apart from European honeybees.

Highly adaptable, they build hives in a wide variety of locations, including hollow trees, walls, attics, abandoned vehicles, irrigation boxes, and even underground spaces.

Defensive and quick to react to perceived threats. They may pursue intruders up to 1/4 mile. Africanized honeybees are prolific swarmers, relocating colonies more frequently than other bees. They are also opportunistic, often taking over European honeybee colonies.

Like all honeybees, they are vital pollinators, supporting agriculture and natural ecosystems.
