Live bee removal
Whether you're dealing with a bee problem in your roof, chimney, cavity wall or elsewhere – get in touch with Quinn Bees. We're your local trusted experts in live bee removal.
We offer professional bee removal and relocation services across Suffolk, Essex, Norfolk and Hertfordshire. Bees are very important for our ecosystem. While they aren't a protected species, they are under threat from factors such as climate change, habitat loss, pests and pesticides. Killing a bee colony isn't the best way to remove it, and we believe ethical bee relocation is the safest and most responsible solution. Plus, the sooner you act, the easier and more affordable the process can be. Smaller colonies mean quicker bee removals.
We’re local Suffolk-based beekeepers who manage the entire process from start to finish, including:
Once the bees are safely removed, they're transferred to our hives and taken to a quarantine apiary where they’re monitored, treated and fed. From there, they join one of our healthy colonies to live out their days, happily buzzing in a new home.

To book your survey for our bee removal services, enter your details into the form below and we'll aim to get back to you within 1-2 working days. When we visit the site we'll conduct a thorough written survey using specialised cameras to determine the size of the bee colony and how to remove it humanely. If scaffolding is required for the job, we'll organise this for you. After removal, we'll repair any building damage and deep-clean the area to remove pheromones, which will deter the bees from returning.
Survey jobs that are located within 30 mins of our premises cost £50. If your location is between 30-120 mins travel time from our premises, we charge £175 for surveys. Please note we do not attend jobs that are located over a two-hour distance. Removal costs charged separately.
