Everything Chandler homeowners ask us, answered straight.
Every removal is quoted individually — there's no flat rate. What you'll pay depends mostly on the colony's size, how high up and accessible it is, whether it's out in the open or inside a wall or roof that has to be opened, and whether you need comb cleanout and sealing afterward. Your local pro inspects first and gives you a firm quote before any work begins. See our services & what to expect.
Yes, and it's one of our most common Chandler calls. Newer stucco homes have weep holes and vent gaps that scouts use to reach wall and roof voids. We remove the colony and comb, then advise on sealing the entry so it doesn't recur.
Most wild colonies across Maricopa County carry Africanized genetics. You can't tell by looking, so treat every colony as defensive and keep people and pets — including grandkids in Sun Lakes — well back.
Yes. Many Chandler master-planned and 55+ communities require proof of professional removal. We photograph the colony, the extraction, and sealed entry points so you can satisfy the HOA or an insurance claim.
Whenever it's safe, yes — healthy swarms and accessible hives go to local apiaries. Deeply embedded or very defensive colonies sometimes can't be saved; we'll be honest before we start.
Keep everyone indoors, close windows and doors, shut off pool and yard equipment near the bees, and don't spray — spraying a defensive colony can trigger mass stinging.
