No. As a beekeeper-owned company, we relocate the insects that help us. Bumblebees and native paper wasps are always humanely relocated, and gentle cicada killers are moved away from walkways and play areas rather than poisoned. Males can’t sting at all, and females rarely do. We only remove the stinging insects that put people at risk, like yellowjackets, hornets and European paper wasps.

Absolutely. Older siding, loose trim and open vents give yellowjackets easy access to wall and ceiling voids. We find the nest and physically take it out instead of spraying poison into the wall, so nothing is left to rot or draw new pests. Keep clear of the entrance and give us a call.

We do. Wasps around Bucyrus love the shelter of garages, sheds and decks. Yellowjacket, hornet and European paper wasp nests are removed with no pesticides. Native paper wasps are always relocated, because they help control garden and crop pests. Text a photo first so we can tell you what you’re dealing with.

Those are likely yellowjackets. They often use old burrows, brush piles and overgrown corners. Look for wasps flying in and out of one small hole. Mowing over it or pouring something in can set off the whole colony. We remove ground nests without pesticides. Text a photo from a safe distance to 419-614-6445.

In Northwest Ohio, queens that survived the winter start small nests in spring. By late summer and early fall the colonies are at their biggest and most defensive, so that’s when most calls from Bucyrus come in. A hard frost ends most colonies, but mated queens overwinter to start again. Small nests are easiest to remove, so call early.

Strictly speaking, honeybees live in hives and wasps build paper nests, though most people use the words interchangeably. Either way, our Wasp Hive Removal Service takes out yellowjacket, hornet and European paper wasp nests with no pesticides. Honeybee hives are never destroyed; a beekeeper relocates them alive. Our article on wasp hive removal vs. wasp nest removal explains more.

Rescued colonies go to our sister company, The Mindful Beekeeper, whose Apiary #1 is at 12860 W TR 114 in Loudon Township. Starting in 2027, colonies will also go to Apiary #2 in Van Buren, OH and Apiary #3 in Bryan, OH. Every colony stops at an inspection station first, and only surplus honey is ever taken from strong hives.

Please don’t spray them. Keep kids and pets at a distance. A cluster on a branch, fence or mailbox is usually resting while scouts search for a home. Text a photo and your address to 419-614-6445. Our sister company, The Mindful Beekeeper, collects open-air swarms at no charge through its Northwest Ohio swarm rescue service, and the bees go to an apiary.

Bees flying in and out of one gap usually mean a colony has moved in and is building comb inside the wall, ceiling or soffit. Our sister company, The Mindful Beekeeper, plans those structural removals one job at a time. Don’t seal the hole or spray, because that traps the bees and leaves comb to melt and rot. Text a photo to 419-614-6445.

Yes, with a thermal camera. A honeybee colony keeps its nest at roughly 92–95°F, which shows up clearly against cooler wall framing. The Mindful Beekeeper offers thermal camera scans in Crawford County, so the comb can be located before anything is opened. That means a smaller, more accurate cut, and the bees leave alive.

Honeybee relocations from walls, ceilings, soffits and other structures are being booked for Spring 2027, so reserve a spot early. Wasp removal is booked separately. In hot, humid Ohio weather, some extractions are done at night. Bees hanging in the open are a swarm, which is handled differently. Text a photo to 419-614-6445.
