Welcome To Desert Swarm Bee Removal, LLC

All of the feral (wild) honey bees in southern Arizona are presumed to be Africanized. Africanized honey bees can be extremely aggressive and dangerous to both humans and pets if they perceive a threat to their hive. If you suspect there are bees on your property, we highly recommend that you hire a professional bee removal company that is licensed, insured, and trained to handle Africanized honey bees. Bee control should never be attempted as a “do-it-yourself” project due to the risk of danger involved.

But there is no need to worry, we are here to help! Desert Swarm has the experience, expertise, knowledge, and equipment necessary to diagnose and safely resolve a variety of Africanized honey bee issues. On a daily basis, we handle bee issues ranging from the removal of newly arrived bees (a swarm) to the removal of well-established beehives in homes.

Is Live Removal and Relocation an Option?

Our number one priority is to keep your family, pets, the public, and our specialists safe during a removal. We will only perform live removals of newly-arrived swarms, if it is a safe option. Safety risks associated with live removals depend on the size and accessibility of the swarm. This is evaluated by the bee specialist onsite at time of service.

We will only consider live removals of swarms that are:

1) Newly-arrived and not well-established
2) Completely exposed and have not moved into a structure
3) Relatively accessible (e.g. a swarm that is resting in a tree)

We do not offer live removals for swarms that are well-established or have already moved into a cavity or structure due to the territorial and aggressive nature of Africanized bees. Either way, we can solve your bee problem effectively and safely!

Desert Swarm values the importance of bees as pollinators, so if we can safely perform a live removal of a newly-arrived bee swarm, we will! Bee swarms that are removed alive, are then relocated to one of our own locally managed hives!

Do you think you have a bee problem or infestation of bees in your home or business? Are you a business that has bees year after year and are looking for bee control services to protect your patrons or residents? Would you prefer your bees removed alive, if possible?

What Our Clients are Saying about Desert Swarm

“Over the years we have used the services of several different companies offering various strategies in dealing with bees on property. The results weren’t always positive and the priority wasn’t always us the customer. We were fortunate to find Greg and Allison Williams at Desert Swarm. These folks encompass everything you look for in a service focused business partner. Extremely knowledgeable, honest and genuinely concerned about the customer’s needs and wellbeing. We wouldn’t think of using anyone else.” Michael Petty – Area Director of Agronomy with Omni Tucson National Resort

“We both want you to know how grateful we are that you came to us in our hour of need! We truly want you to know how appreciative we are for your skilled service. You have now handled two emergency bee removal calls for us and both were completed in the most forthright and professional manner. You will be highly recommended to anyone whom we know of that has a bee problem. You have been a wonderful instructor to us in understanding bee behavior and for this we again say “Thank You.” Sandy and Chuck Amy, Zen Donkey Rescue and Adoption Center, Marana, AZ

“Came home to a swarm in one of my established mesquite trees high in the air…My call was answered immediately by the owner. He asked me a few questions about what I had found and was able to swing by my house within the hour. Within 45mins. the swarm was handled and cleared. He also inspected the house to see if the bees had inﬁltrated any available spaces on the property. Owner is passionate about bees and extremely knowledgeable. Thank you sooo verymuch!… Standing ovation all around. I go as far as calling this man a true “Bee Wrangler”. All at a very reasonable price.”Jared C, Tucson (via Google)

“This company is the one to go with for your bee needs! Greg is very nice and knows what he is doing. We called Sunday evening after they kept invading INSIDE our bathroom. Greg came out the very next morning, quickly ﬁgured out what kind of bees they were and where they we regetting in. He sprayed to stop them from coming around and even patched up the crack where they were getting in. I would recommend this company over any other ina heartbeat. Oh, and the price was VERY reasonable!.”Nikole Padgen, Tucson (via Google)
