Honey Bee Removal and Swarm Removal in Placerville, California
Placerville is our home base. Golden State Bee Rescue has been keeping and rescuing honey bees here since 2015, and most of the calls we take start with a swarm on a fruit tree or bees slipping into a gap in an older house.
About the Placerville Area
Placerville mixes downtown buildings with wooded lots, hillside homes, and small acreage along Highway 50. Older structures with wood siding, rock foundations, and open eaves give honey bees plenty of cavities to move into.
We take requests from homeowners, downtown business owners, property managers, and rural landowners on the surrounding ridges.
Situations We Commonly See Here
- Swarm clusters on fruit trees, oaks, and fence lines in spring
- Colonies established behind siding or in the eaves of older homes
- Bees using gaps in stone foundations, sheds, and outbuildings
- Colonies inside standing oak and pine snags on wooded lots
