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. Male cicada killers can’t sting, and females rarely do. We only remove the stinging insects that put people at risk, like yellowjackets, hornets and European paper wasps.

Yes. Maumee is part of our Lucas County coverage, and our Main Office in Loudon Township is the closest base. Our Wasp Hive Removal Service covers yellowjackets, hornets and European paper wasps. We also offer honeybee and bumblebee relocation, cicada killer relocation and opossum rescue. Call or text 419-614-6445 and send a picture of the nest.

Absolutely. Yellowjackets in Maumee often slip through gaps in siding, trim and vents and build inside walls and ceilings. Rather than spraying into the wall, we locate the nest and remove it, so no dead nest is left behind to rot. If wasps keep flying in and out of one spot, stay back and call or text us.

Yes. Yards across Maumee gives wasps lots of garages, sheds and play sets to settle in. 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. Text a photo first so we can tell you what you’re dealing with.

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 Maumee homeowners notice them. A hard frost ends most colonies, but mated queens overwinter to start again. Small nests are easiest to remove, so call early.

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. Don’t mow over it or try to flood it, which sets off the 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. Whatever you call it, our Wasp Hive Removal Service removes yellowjacket, hornet and European paper wasp nests without pesticides. Honeybee hives are never destroyed; a beekeeper relocates them alive. Our article on wasp hive removal vs. wasp nest removal explains more.

No chemicals at all. We never spray poison at your home. Nests are physically removed, which is how beekeepers can offer this service without a pest control license. That means no residue on your porch, deck or garden, and nothing drifting onto the flowers pollinators in Lucas County need. Call or text 419-614-6445 for a free virtual quote.

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. Our sister company, The Mindful Beekeeper, collects open-air swarms at no charge through its Lucas County swarm rescue service, and the bees go to an apiary.

They go to our sister company, The Mindful Beekeeper. Apiary #1 is at 12860 W TR 114 in Loudon Township, near Fostoria. 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.

Yes, with a careful cutout. Only the section of siding, drywall or ceiling over the comb is opened. The comb is cut out by hand and secured into frames, and the remaining bees are gently vacuumed into a hive box. See The Mindful Beekeeper’s wall cutout service. The opening is then left clean for repairs.

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. That’s a structural removal, handled by The Mindful Beekeeper after a careful look at the job. 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.

Structural honeybee relocations are now booking for Spring 2027, so it pays to get on the list 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.
