Never. We’re beekeeper-owned, so helpful insects get relocated. 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.

Yes. Nothing is sprayed. Nests are physically removed, which is how beekeepers can offer this service without a pest control license. There’s no residue left on decks, play sets or garden beds in Carey. Text a photo to 419-614-6445 for a free virtual quote.

We do. Wasps around Carey love the shelter of barns, sheds and outbuildings. Yellowjacket, hornet and European paper wasp nests are removed with no pesticides. Native paper wasps are relocated, never destroyed, since they eat caterpillars and other pests. Before you start a project near a nest, text us a photo so we can identify it.

Absolutely. Gaps around siding, trim, soffits and vents let yellowjackets build inside wall and ceiling voids. Rather than spraying into the wall, we locate the nest and remove it, so no dead nest is left behind to rot. Keep clear of the entrance and give us a call.

Nests start in spring, when a single queen that survived the winter begins building. Colonies grow all summer and peak in late summer and early fall, which is when most Carey homeowners notice them. A hard frost usually finishes the colony, while new queens hide away until spring. Catching a nest while it’s small is easier for everyone.

Ground nests are usually yellowjackets using old burrows, brush piles or 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.

People use both words, but technically a hive is home to honeybees, while wasps build paper nests. 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.

They go to our sister company, The Mindful Beekeeper. Apiary #1 is at 12860 W TR 114 in Loudon Township, near Fostoria. From 2027, they’ll also go to Apiary #2 in Van Buren, OH and Apiary #3 in Bryan, OH. Each colony passes through an inspection station before joining an apiary, and only extra honey is harvested from strong hives.

Don’t spray it, and keep people and pets back. A swarm on a branch or fence is usually just resting while scouts look for a new home. Text a photo and your address to 419-614-6445. Swarms hanging in the open are removed at no charge by our sister company, The Mindful Beekeeper, through its Wyandot County swarm rescue service, and the bees go to an apiary instead of being destroyed.

Not quite. A swarm hangs out in the open, but bees going in and out of one spot have usually built 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.

A thermal camera helps a lot. 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 Wyandot County, so the comb can be located before anything is opened. That keeps any wall cut small and accurate, and the colony is moved out alive.

Structural honeybee relocations are now booking for Spring 2027, so it pays to get on the list early. Wasp and yellowjacket removal is a separate service. Some extractions happen at night when the weather is hot and humid. Bees hanging in the open are a swarm, which is handled differently. Text a photo to 419-614-6445.
