I was so happy and relieved to come across the Sage Beekeeper. He was able to come out in under 24 hrs of my thumbtack request. We wanted to be able to save the bees instead of sending for pest control. He was informative and professional and his vibe was very tranquil which I liked because it didn’t stress the bees out. It was a pleasure to watch the process of removing the queen and watching all the bees follow after. I never enjoy watching house upkeep task but this one was a delight. I got to try some raw unfiltered unheated honey from one of the combs. We will absolutely be recommending him to our family and friends.

I had a great experience working with this knowledgeable and respectful young man. He handled the bee relocation with care and professionalism, and I’m confident the bees are in good hands. I highly recommend him for any bee rescue or relocation needs. I’m also looking forward to buying some honey once it’s available!

I originally acquired Musa’s contact info from a neighbor who had bred in her roof. He was very clear about his work, punctual, and he got the job done right the first time. 100% would hire him again.

Professional young man. He came and removed bees on my property. He took the time to educate me on what exactly he was doing and stressed the fact that his main goal was to protect them rather than kill them. 10/10

FAQs

  • What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

    This is how live removals and relocations are priced with TSB Swarm removal (no structure): $200–$600 Structural cut-out (walls, roofs, sheds): $600–$1,800+ Trap-out (longer jobs): $400–$1,200 Emergency/after-hours: add $150–$300 Travel (25+ mi): $1.50/mile round trip

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    I’ve worked with both commercial and residential customers alike. It does not matter where the bees are. If there are bees, I will get them out safely.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    •Make sure that the person you hire will go ahead and remove the whole colony, and not just kill the bees. Bee extermination is just spot repair, but if the components of the hive such as wax and honey are left intact in the problem area, the chance of bees inhabiting the same area increases drastically
