One nest down but the work continues! Two new confirmed sightings in the general area of the 2020 and 2021 #AsianGiantHornet nest eradications. Your reports DO make a difference. Report at https://t.co/o8g9ZHvSAd or email [email protected].
A little fun fact: Bees are usually very docile when they’re swarming! As long as they don’t feel threatened, they will not sting. If you come across a swarm, contact us and we’ll remove the swarm and re-home the bees to a safer place 🐝

GIANT beehive removed from a home in Everman, TX! Over six feet tall and over 100 lbs of comb and honey. Imagine finding out this was in your wall! Approximately 60,000 bees saved! #bees#savethebees#nature#absoluteunit#BeeHive
The San Diego Padres killed a swarm of bees during a game. The Rangers called us to remove and relocate a swarm from their new stadium. 🤷♀️ Just Sayin. #savethebees#bees#Padres#Rangers#baseball#gogreen
Bears aren’t the only natural predator to bees. This video we captured shows a green anole posted near the entrance of a hive eating bees as they come in and out. #savethebees#bees#greenanole#gogreen
During the summer the bees can sometimes get overheated. Our beekeeper thought it'd be nice to let them have some AC! Cooling them down also lowers their energy and aggression.
Ever wonder how you identify a queen bee? Their bodies are a bit longer than the rest of the bees, and they have less stripes than the workers. The other bees also behave differently around her, feeding and tending to her so she can lay eggs and grow the colony.
Giant hive found on the eaves of this house. Judging by the color it’s a fairly young colony. Luckily we relocated them to a place they’re wanted! #bees#savethebees#nature#eco-friendly #beerescue
