HONEY BEE SWARM/COLONY CONSULTATIONS

As a service to the public and to avoid unnecessary destruction of honey bee populations, we will assist you in removing confirmed, open-space-accessible honey bee swarms from your property, primarily in northern Lehigh and northwestern Northampton counties. We will also assist with referrals from other eastern Pennsylvania counties. Please complete and submit the Contact Form below.

Our primary service area generally includes areas bounded by Route 22 (south), Route 309 (west), Cherryville (north), and Hanover Township (east). Consult the area map below to see where our direct swarm removal service is provided.

We also partner with reputable, licensed and insured firms (honey bee colony removal or other insect extermination, if needed) which service most of the eastern third of the state of Pennsylvania, beyond our local service area!

In any event, call Tom “Dedko” Lindeman for assistance 610-349-9597!

*Requests for certain on-site services may incur a charge. We also offer assessment and assistance with referral service for the removal of wasps, hornets, yellowjackets, carpenter bees, bumblebees, etc., structural or nuisance infestation. Removal of honey bee swarms, established honey bee colonies, or “non-honey bees” insects inhabiting certain internal structures will be referred to contractors/technicians who charge a fee for service, based upon the complexity and resources required, to complete the extraction. We partner with a reputable, licensed and insured firm for removal from structures and will gladly help to make arrangements with them.
