Why Gowanus Has a Bees Problem
Gowanus's unique mix of historic row houses, industrial warehouses along the canal, and newly developed residential buildings creates diverse nesting opportunities for bees. The neighborhood's proximity to green spaces like the Gowanus Canal itself and nearby parks means bee activity is common, especially during spring and summer months when colonies are most active.
Why Choose Us for Bee Removal in Gowanus
Bee removal prioritizes relocation over extermination wherever possible — honey bees and bumble bees are protected and ecologically important, and we work to remove them humanely. For accessible hives in trees, siding, or eaves, our technicians physically remove the comb, honey, and bees and coordinate relocation with local beekeepers. For hives inside wall voids, we use a combination of bee vacuuming and structural access to fully remove the colony and comb — leaving comb behind attracts new swarms and causes honey seepage and odor problems. Every service includes a service agreement — terms depend on the service and are confirmed on the call.
