Quick response and great communication by text with Dan. They came out same day on a weekend to check on bees that had moved into my parents' house, and did a live removal that week. Not the cheapest service, but you get what you pay for — professional, quick and clean, including patching and painting the exterior they had to remove to reach the bees. I also loved that they partner with local farmers to relocate the bees as valuable pollinators.

I discovered bees in my attic 24 hours before leaving on vacation and Bee Free responded right away. It turned out to be a hive of about 2,000 yellow jackets that had moved in through an exterior air vent. Dan and Rodrigo got it under control, removed the nest and stabilized things before I left — then came back after I returned to clear the attic and seal the vent securely.

I found a large wasp nest in the eaves of my balcony and asked my management company to call Bee Free. I got a call right back and a team member came out that same afternoon. He removed the large nest, spotted a second smaller one around the corner and removed that one too. I highly recommend the Bee Free Team.

Had bees in a tough-to-reach spot. Rodrigo returned the space to its previous condition (minus the 1,000+ bees) and made sure bees wouldn't gather there again. Speedy and professional.

Thousands of bees swarmed my senior in-laws' house the day before Easter. I called 6–7 names off the County Beekeepers list and Dan was the only one to call back — in under 10 minutes. He asked specific questions, correctly diagnosed scouting bees that had brought the queen to a new hive location, came out to inspect, was patient and clear with my elderly in-laws, and promised not to exceed a set price. When the crew hit more honeycomb than expected on the prior job, Dan came over himself at 5pm and worked until 8:30pm rather than push us to the next day — roughly 20,000 bees, double an average swarm. The team finished the live removal the next morning and repaired everything so well you can't tell anything happened.
