Bees are vital to our ecosystem due to their role in pollination, but when they nest too close to human habitation, they can pose significant safety risks. Their stings can cause painful reactions, and for those allergic to bee stings, the consequences can be severe. At Simply The Best Pest Control, we offer comprehensive bee control services that ensure the safety of your family and property while preserving the essential role bees play in the environment. Our experienced technicians use humane and effective methods to handle bee infestations.

Understanding Bees and Their Behavior
Bees are generally non-aggressive but can become defensive when their hive is threatened. Different types of bees have different behaviors and nesting habits, which can influence the approach needed for control and removal. Here’s a brief overview of the most common types of bees:
- Honey Bees: Known for their role in pollination and honey production, honey bees are usually non-aggressive but can become defensive if their hive is disturbed. They often nest in hollow trees, walls, or other sheltered spaces.
- Bumblebees: These bees are typically less aggressive but can still sting if provoked. Bumblebees usually nest in the ground, often in abandoned rodent burrows or under sheds.
- Carpenter Bees: Unlike honey bees and bumblebees, carpenter bees do not live in colonies. They bore into wood to create nests, which can cause structural damage to buildings and other wooden structures.

I had a chat with Michael from Simply the Best Pest Control and he was super easy to talk to. He broke down all the services they offer, really listened to me, and had answers for everything I asked.
Then there was Phil, their Field Tech, who came over to my place. He was supposed to be here sometime between 10 and 1, and sure enough, he showed up at 10:45 am. Just like Michael, Phil was awesome to chat with. He paid attention to my concerns and was on the ball with his answers.
Honestly, I've gotta give these guys a solid 5 stars. I've been running my own home for a while now and have seen a bunch of companies come and go. Simply, they're up there with the best of them. Really respectful, easygoing, and just nice people.
Big thanks to the team at Simply the Best! You guys rock.

Our Bee Control Services
At Simply The Best Pest Control, our bee control services are tailored to meet the unique needs of your property while prioritizing safety and environmental responsibility. Our approach includes thorough inspection, targeted treatment, and prevention strategies to ensure effective bee control.
Inspection and Identification
Thorough Inspection: Our skilled technicians conduct a comprehensive inspection of your property to locate bee nests and identify the type of stinging insects present. We inspect common nesting areas such as eaves, overhangs, porches, decks, and underneath siding.
Accurate Identification: Proper identification of the stinging insect species is crucial. Different species may require different handling techniques to ensure safe and effective treatment.
Targeted Bee Treatment
Safe Treatment: We do not perform hive removals. Instead, we treat the nests so that foraging bees are killed when they return. This method ensures that the nest naturally dies and falls off, reducing risks to you and your family.
Eco-Friendly Practices: Our treatments are designed to be environmentally friendly and safe for families and pets. While we do not relocate bees, our methods respect local bee populations and maintain ecological balance. We offer organic treatment options for those who prefer eco-friendly solutions.
Prevention
Sealing Entry Points: To prevent bees from returning, we seal cracks, gaps, and other potential entry points around your property. This step is essential for long-term bee control.
Regular Maintenance: Our Healthy Home program provides year-round protection from stinging insects. We offer ongoing maintenance and monitoring services to ensure your property remains bee-free and to catch any new bee activity early.
Educational Guidance: We provide tips and recommendations for keeping bees away from your property and safely coexisting with these beneficial insects. Education is a key component in preventing future infestations.
