This Rialto bee removal turned into a much larger job than expected! A honey bee colony had built a hive inside the roof of a house, hidden beside a solar panel. After opening two roof sections, I relocated the brood and prepared the colony for transfer into a bee box. Back in about 10 days to finish the relocation!

I removed a hidden honey bee colony from behind the stucco wall of a home's entrance archway in Temple City, CA. After opening the wall, I found brood, eggs, honeycomb, and an active colony extending deeper into the structure. The bees quickly started moving into the relocation box, making this a successful live bee rescue.

Huge honey bee hive removal in Chino Hills, Southern California. This colony was built deep inside the bottom roof section of a house and was loaded with brood, honey, eggs, and baby bees.
I carefully relocated the hive into a bee box so the colony could survive and continue thriving. Returning in 5–10 days to collect the bees once they settle in. 🐝

I opened up this storage shed expecting a straightforward bee removal, but the hive kept going deeper into the wall cavity behind the drywall. Massive amounts of brood, honeycomb, and thousands of honey bees hidden inside this Marriott property.
