Bee Removal & Control in Dayton, OH
Bees around a Dayton home are usually honey bees in a wall void, carpenter bees drilling eaves and decks, or bumble bees nesting low in mulch and crawl spaces. Correct identification matters — the treatment for each is different, and so is whether the colony should be relocated instead of treated.
Signs you have bees
- Steady bee traffic in and out of one gap in siding, soffit or brick
- Perfectly round 1/2-inch holes in eaves, railings or deck framing
- Sawdust piles below wood trim (carpenter bees)
- Buzzing or a warm spot inside a wall
- Low ground nesting in mulch beds or under a shed
How we treat it
- 01
Species identification on site before anything is applied
- 02
Nest and void location — the entry hole is rarely where the colony is
- 03
Treatment or referral for relocation when honey bees can be saved
- 04
Void treatment, then sealing so the space is not re-colonized
- 05
Carpenter bee gallery treatment and exterior wood protection
Bees questions Dayton homeowners ask
- How fast can you get out for bees?
- Most Miami Valley calls are scheduled within the same week, and stinging-insect emergencies are often handled same or next day. Ken schedules the visit himself when you call.
- Is the treatment safe around children and pets?
- Yes. We use EPA-registered products applied by a licensed applicator (ODA #12706), placed where pests travel rather than where your family does. We will tell you exactly how long to stay off treated surfaces.
- Do I have to sign a contract?
- No. One-time service, quarterly and monthly programs are all available, and nothing auto-locks you in. Quarterly customers get free re-treats between visits.
