Delray Beach Bee & Wasp Removal — safe, fast, and done right.
Paper wasps at the front door, a yellow jacket nest in the ground, or a honey bee colony humming inside a wall — Delray Beach’s year-round warmth keeps stinging insects active every season. Bugsy’s removes them safely, and for hives we remove, treat, and repair the opening.
Stinging insects are a year-round issue in Delray Beach
Our frost-free climate means wasps, hornets, and bees nest and stay active all year, and they love exactly the places people spend time — eaves, soffits, door frames, patios, lanais, and screen enclosures. A nest at a doorway or on a play set isn’t just a nuisance; for anyone with a sting allergy it’s a genuine hazard.
Honey bees are a different situation. When a colony moves into a wall void, soffit, or chimney, it becomes a structural problem — the comb and honey draw other pests and can stain and damage the building — and Florida also has more defensive Africanized honey bees. A structural colony should never be sprayed or sealed in by a homeowner, which only drives thousands of bees into the living space.
What we handle
Paper Wasps
The umbrella-shaped nests under eaves and in door frames — beneficial, but they defend the nest and sting where you walk.
Yellow Jackets
Large, aggressive ground- and void-nesting colonies that sting repeatedly — a serious hazard we remove with the right protection.
Hornets & Mud Daubers
Aerial paper nests and solitary mud nests removed safely, with old nests cleared so other wasps don’t move in.
Structural Honey Bee Hives
Bees in a wall, soffit, or chimney — we remove and treat the hive and, in most cases, repair the area we opened. See our Bee & Hive Removal service.
Straight talk on honey bees
Bugsy’s performs hive removal and treatment — not live bee relocation. If bees are streaming in and out of a wall or soffit, do not spray or seal the opening yourself; it traps the colony and pushes bees indoors. Call a professional. Florida’s Africanized bees make this especially important.
How our bee & wasp service works
Assess
We identify the insect and the nest location and confirm the safest way to remove it — a doorway paper-wasp nest and a honey bee colony in a wall are very different jobs.
Remove safely
We treat and remove active wasp and hornet nests with the proper protective equipment and timing to minimize sting risk.
Hives: remove, treat, repair
For structural honey bee colonies we remove and treat the hive and, in most cases, repair the area we opened — backed by a 90-day warranty.
Prevent re-nesting
We clear old nests and treat favored spots so wasps don’t simply rebuild at the same doorway or eave.
