Bees & Wasps Control
Never disturb a nest yourself — always call a professional for safe removal.
Signs of a Bees & Wasps Problem
- Visible nest in roof eaves, wall cavities, garden trees, or under structures
- High concentration of bee or wasp activity near one point of the structure
- Honey seeping through walls or ceilings (established honeybee colony)
- Aggressive bee or wasp behaviour near a particular area
- Swarm of bees resting on tree or structure (usually temporary — contact us)
Professional Treatment Methods
- Bee relocation — removing the swarm or established colony and relocating to a beekeeper
- Wasp nest removal and insecticide treatment of nest cavity
- Honeycomb removal from wall cavities to prevent honey damage and secondary pests
- Entry point sealing after nest is removed
Bee and Wasp Problems in South Africa
South Africa is home to the Cape honey bee (Apis mellifera capensis) and the Africanised honey bee — a hybrid known for significantly more defensive behaviour than European honeybee varieties. Both can establish colonies in roof spaces, wall cavities, and garden trees.
Wasp species including the paper wasp and yellow jacket are also common, particularly in summer. Their nests are typically smaller than honeybee colonies but their sting is considered more painful.
Important: If you see a bee swarm resting on a tree or fence, do not panic. Swarms are generally docile and temporary. Contact us immediately for fast relocation.
