A hive in your wall, soffit, or eaves? We remove it — and repair the damage.
A bee colony inside your home’s structure isn’t just a sting risk — the comb, honey, and wax draw other pests and can damage the building. Bugsy’s locates the hive, removes and treats it, and in most cases repairs the area we opened to reach it. One crew for the problem and the patch-up.

Why a hive in the structure has to go
Bees in a wall void or soffit rarely resolve on their own — and the longer they stay, the bigger the job.
Sting risk
An active colony near doors, windows, or a patio is a daily hazard — especially for kids, pets, and anyone with allergies.
Structural & pest damage
Abandoned comb, honey, and wax left in a wall attract rodents, roaches, and moths, and can stain and rot building materials.
It gets worse with time
Colonies grow. What starts as a small entry at a soffit becomes a larger hive that’s harder — and costlier — to reach and remove.
Bugsy’s removes and treats problem hives — we do not perform live bee removals or relocations. We take out the hive and, in most cases, repair the area we opened to get to it, so you’re left with the problem solved and the structure closed back up.
Bee & hive removal pricing
Priced by how the hive is reached — a hive at ground level is a very different job than one deep in a second-story soffit. All work carries a 90-day warranty.
| Job | Starting Price |
|---|---|
| Exposed hive, ground level (no cutting) | from $379 |
| Hive requiring cutting (shed/wall)* | from $579 |
| Exposed hive, second story (ladder) | from $750 |
| Removal from a soffit* | from $1,250 |
| Structural repair (e.g. soffit) | from $500 |
| Lift rental required | from $1,450 |
| Roofer required to access | from $1,750 |
*Cutting and soffit removal prices do not include repairing the opening; repair is quoted separately (from $500). Final pricing depends on hive location, size, and access, and is confirmed at your free estimate.
How it works
Free estimate & inspection
We locate the hive, confirm how it has to be reached, and give you an upfront price before any work starts.
Access the hive
Depending on location, that may mean a ladder, opening a soffit or wall section, or bringing in a lift — whatever it takes to reach the colony.
Remove & treat
We remove and treat the hive and clear the comb so it stops drawing other pests.
Repair & warrant
In most cases we repair the area we opened, and your service is backed by a 90-day warranty.
warranty
Done right, closed up, and covered. Every bee & hive removal carries a 90-day warranty — and because we handle the repair too, you’re not left chasing a separate contractor to close the hole.
