If bees are repeatedly entering the same opening on your Lewisville property, they may be establishing a hive inside a protected cavity. Home & Hive provides experienced honeybee removal for swarms, newer colonies, and fully established structural hives.
Our family-owned North Texas company has specialized in bee removal for more than a decade. We inspect the visible activity and structural location before recommending swarm removal, the Bee Repellent Method, or full hive removal.
Lewisville includes established neighborhoods, mature landscaping, newer construction, and mixed-use development. Different building ages and construction styles create different potential entry points, but honeybees consistently seek dry, sheltered voids protected from weather.
Potential hive locations include:
These photos show actual honeybee colonies found in Lewisville, including a large established hive inside a soffit, exposed comb built in a tree, and a colony gathered at a roofline. The correct removal approach depends on whether the bees are exposed or established inside a protected structural cavity.
A swarm is typically a dense cluster of bees resting temporarily on an exposed object. A hive is more likely when bees follow a steady flight path into a small opening. Once inside, they can build comb, raise brood, and store honey out of sight.
Because a swarm can move into a structure quickly, early evaluation often provides more removal options.
Accessible outdoor swarms can often be collected and relocated before they choose a permanent cavity.
Our proprietary method may be recommended for certain newer hives or hard-to-access locations. It is not a substitute for removing the comb and honey from every established structural hive, so we will explain whether the situation is a good candidate.
For an established hive, we access the cavity and remove the bees, comb, and honey. The area is cleaned, packed with insulation when appropriate, and reassembled according to the scope of work. This service includes a two-year warranty against a new swarm occupying the same location, subject to the written terms.
Honeybee colonies can contain thousands of bees. Closing their exterior entrance does not remove them and may force them toward interior spaces. It also leaves the hive material inside the cavity. Sealing should occur only as part of the appropriate removal and prevention process.
We serve Lewisville and nearby areas including Flower Mound, The Colony, Little Elm, Coppell, and Denton. Browse all areas served by Home & Hive.
Scout bees may be investigating a gap, or an established colony may already be using the opening. A consistent stream of bees entering and exiting is more concerning than occasional activity.
Large amounts of stored honey can leak after a colony weakens or is treated incorrectly. Honey and wax may stain finishes and attract ants, roaches, or other pests.
Yes. The appropriate method depends on the hive’s exact location, age, and whether the cavity can reasonably be opened. Some masonry work may require a separate specialist, which will be explained before service.
Hive odors and remaining material can attract future swarms. Full removal, cleaning, void filling, and proper exterior sealing help reduce that risk.
Clear photos and a short description often allow us to evaluate the likely service remotely. Some complex locations may require additional inspection.
