Assistance

• Texas Beekeepers Associations  

• Bee Removal - Beesource

• Beekeepers expressing interest in handling local bee problems

Beekeepers are most likely to offer assistance with temporary bee swarms (see photo at right -->) rather than with established colonies in the walls of houses or outbuildings. The latter situation usually requires a professional pest control operator (as well as a carpenter).
