Hive Relocation: When feasible, we relocate bee hives to suitable beekeeping facilities or designated areas where they can thrive without causing disturbances to human populations. This approach supports bee conservation efforts, and the crucial role bees play in pollination.

What are the best bee removal and treatment options for my property?

At Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, we offer a range of bee control and removal services tailored to the severity, location, and species of the infestation. Whether you’re dealing with bees near your home, business, or garden, our solutions are designed to be safe, effective, and environmentally responsible.

🐝 1. Live Capture and Relocation

Our preferred approach is live bee removal and hive relocation. This method focuses on capturing the bees safely and relocating them to a more suitable location where they can continue their role as pollinators without posing a risk to people. While this is a humane and sustainable solution, it does require specialised skills and may not always be feasible if a safe relocation site is unavailable.

🧪 2. Bee Extermination (When Necessary)

In situations where live capture isn’t possible - such as hives built deep inside walls or in unsafe locations - our technicians may use targeted bee extermination. This involves careful application of treatments to eliminate the threat while minimising environmental impact. Extermination is always a last resort when other methods are not viable, and your safety is our top priority.

🛡️ 3. Bee Prevention and Property Protection

Prevention is key to long-term bee control. Our technicians will assess your property and recommend effective bee deterrents such as:

  • Sealing cracks or wall voids
  • Removing nesting attractants like old stumps or hollow logs
  • Adjusting landscaping by planting bee-attracting flora away from entrances
  • Keeping outdoor spaces tidy and free of debris


We also provide tailored advice to help you avoid future infestations and protect your property without harming local bee populations.

At Jim’s, we combine our deep knowledge of bee control with a strong commitment to bee conservation, ensuring every treatment balances safety, effectiveness, and ecological responsibility. Trust us to deliver expert solutions that protect your home while respecting the role of bees in our environment.

How can I prevent bee hives from forming on my property?

Preventing bees from building hives around your home or business starts with understanding what attracts them. At Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, we recommend a combination of bee prevention tips and property maintenance strategies to help keep your space bee-free and safe.

Here are the best ways to prevent bee hives on your property:

🛑 1. Remove Potential Nesting Sites

Bees prefer dark, sheltered spaces to build their hives. To deter them, eliminate common nesting locations such as:

  • Old tires
  • Birdhouses
  • Unused equipment
  • Firewood stacks
  • Wall voids and roof cavities

Inspect your property regularly and seal any crevices or entry points bees could use to establish a colony.

🧹 2. Keep Your Yard Clean and Free of Debris

A cluttered yard filled with leaves, grass cuttings, or rotting fruit can attract bees. Maintain a tidy outdoor space by:


  • Removing organic waste promptly
  • Keeping bins sealed
  • Regularly mowing and trimming vegetation


This discourages bees from nesting near your home and reduces the chances of accidental encounters.

🌸 3. Plant Bee-Friendly Flora Away from Your Home

If you enjoy gardening, consider planting bee-attracting flowers and herbs — such as lavender, basil, and sunflowers — in areas away from doorways, decks, and living spaces. This helps redirect bee activity to safer, designated parts of your yard while still supporting pollination.

By following these simple but effective bee prevention measures, you can reduce the risk of hive formation and avoid costly or dangerous infestations. For ongoing peace of mind, speak to the experts at Jim’s about our bee exclusion and property inspection services.

What are the risks associated with bee removal?

Bee removal can be risky if not handled properly, which is why it's important to rely on trained professionals. At Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, we prioritise safety, environmental care, and regulatory compliance in every bee treatment we perform. Here are the key risks associated with bee removal and how we mitigate them:

1. 🐝 Bee Stings and Allergic Reactions

Bee stings are the most immediate concern during hive removal. They can cause pain, swelling, and in some cases, severe allergic reactions. Our licensed pest control technicians use full protective gear and proven safety protocols to minimise the risk of bee stings. If you or anyone on the property has a bee allergy, we take special precautions to ensure your safety during the treatment.

2. 🧪 Pesticide Exposure (When Necessary)

While our preferred method is live bee relocation, there are situations where targeted pesticide use is required. When this happens, we apply treatments carefully and precisely to avoid unnecessary exposure to humans, pets, and native wildlife. We follow strict industry standards and government regulations to ensure that all chemical use is controlled and safe.

3. 🏠 Potential Property Damage

Bee hives are often found in wall voids, ceilings, or roof cavities — locations that may require careful access. Some removal methods, such as heat treatments or physical extraction, can pose a risk of property damage if not done properly. Our team works with caution and communicates clearly about any risks involved, striving to minimise impact to your home or business during the process.

At Jim’s, we understand the delicate balance between effective bee control and environmental responsibility. Our technicians are highly trained in safe bee removal techniques and follow industry best practices to reduce hazards and deliver reliable results.

By choosing Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, you’re not only getting expert bee control — you’re also ensuring the safety of your household, the well-being of the bees, and the protection of your property.

What should I do if I find a beehive on my property?

At Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, we offer safe, professional beehive removal services designed to protect your family, your property, and the environment.

Here’s what to do — and not do — if you find a beehive:

1. 🐝 Stay Clear of the Hive

Bees can become aggressive if they feel threatened. Keep children and pets away, and avoid using loud equipment, sprays, or vibrations near the hive.

2. 📞 Call a Bee Pest Control Professional

Our technicians are trained in safe beehive removal, including live capture and relocation. We use protective gear and proven techniques to eliminate the danger while preserving the bees whenever possible.

3. 🧪 Avoid Using Sprays or Chemicals

Inappropriate use of pesticides can harm bee populations and pose health risks to people and pets. If chemical treatment is necessary, our team follows strict environmental and safety regulations.

4. 🏠 Prevent Future Hive Activity

We can also inspect your property to identify potential nesting sites and entry points. Our bee prevention services include sealing access points and recommending landscaping adjustments to discourage future infestations.

At Jim’s, we prioritise humane bee removal, responsible practices, and your safety. Whether the hive is in a tree, wall cavity, roof space, or another structure, our experts will remove it efficiently and with care.

What’s the difference between bees and wasps?

Bees and wasps are both flying, stinging insects, but they differ significantly in appearance, behaviour, stinging ability, and ecological role. Understanding the difference between bees and wasps is essential for safe identification and effective pest control.

🐝 Appearance

Bees are typically fuzzy, plump insects with rounded bodies and flattened hind legs adapted for collecting pollen. They are often black or brown with yellow or orange markings.


Wasps, on the other hand, have slender, smooth bodies, a narrow waist, and a shiny exoskeleton. They are often more vibrant in colour, with bold yellow and black or metallic tones.

🐝 Behaviour

Bees are herbivores and are primarily focused on pollination, collecting nectar and pollen to sustain their colonies.


Wasps are generally carnivorous or omnivorous, feeding on other insects and sugary substances. They often act as predators, playing a role in natural pest control.

🐝 Social Structure

Most bees live in highly organised colonies, with a queen, workers, and drones in hives that can house thousands.


Wasps can be either social or solitary. Social wasps form colonies, while solitary wasps build individual nests and operate independently.

🐝 Stinging Behaviour

Bees sting only once. Their barbed stinger remains in the skin, and the bee typically dies after stinging.


Wasps, however, have smooth stingers and can sting multiple times without harming themselves. Both insects typically sting only when provoked or if their nest is threatened.

🐝 Ecological Role

Bees are vital pollinators, essential for fruit, vegetable, and seed production and healthy ecosystems.


Wasps are natural predators that help control insect populations, although they are often seen as aggressive pests.

Whether you're dealing with bee hives or wasp nests, it's important to proceed with caution. For safe, effective, and environmentally responsible solutions, trust the experts at Jim’s Termite & Pest Control. We offer professional bee and wasp removal services across Australia, tailored to your property and pest situation.
