Relocating bees
Bees are fascinating and essential creatures for our ecosystem. There are over 20,000 species of bees worldwide, and they vary in size, color and behavior. Honey bees, known for their honey production, live in large, well-organized colonies. Wild bees, on the other hand, are often solitary and play an important role in pollination. The removal or relocation of bees can become necessary for various reasons. For example, if a hive or nest of wild bees poses a direct danger to humans, as in the case of allergy sufferers, or if bees settle in an unsuitable location, such as in residential buildings. In such cases, it is important to call in experts to remove bees or relocate the bees' nest. If you would like to have a bees' nest removed, then give us a call. We are specialists in the removal and relocation of bees.

Honey bee & Wild bee - What is the difference?
Bees are fascinating insects that can be divided into different species, mainly honey bees and wild bees.
The honey bee, scientifically known as Apis mellifera, is the best-known bee species. They live in large, socially organized colonies consisting of a queen, many workers and a few drones. Honey bees are famous for their ability to produce honey and play an important role in agricultural pollination. They are generally less aggressive and tend to live close to human settlements.
Wild bees, on the other hand, are a diverse group comprising thousands of species. Many wild bee species are solitary, meaning that each individual bee builds and manages its own nest area. Wild bees generally do not produce honey, but are efficient pollinators for many wild and cultivated plants. They vary greatly in size, color and behavior and are often adapted to specific environments or plant species.
The honey bee, known as Apis mellifera, lives in social colonies and is famous for its honey production. They are important pollinators in agriculture and nature. Honey bees are recognizable by their distinctive appearance and complex behavior, including communication through the bee dance. They are generally peaceful, but can sting in defense of their hive.
Wool bees, also known as Anthidium, are solitary wild bees that line their nests with plant fibers. They are small to medium sized, colorful with different patterns and effective pollinators, which are particularly active in summer. These bees are peaceful and only sting in self-defense, being important players in the ecosystem.
Sand bees, part of the genus Andrena, are solitary wild bees that nest in sandy soils. Each female builds her own underground nest with several brood chambers. They are important pollinators in spring, non-aggressive and contribute significantly to biodiversity. Their small size and inconspicuous appearance make them less well-known than other bee species.
Bumblebees, known as Bombus, are furry, large bees that live in small colonies. They are excellent pollinators, especially in cooler climates and for plants with deeper flowers. Bumblebees are generally peaceful and only sting in self-defense. Their adaptability makes them an important part of the ecosystem.
