Why Honey Bees Get Different Treatment

Florida law (F.S. 586) protects honey bees because they’re critical pollinators โ€” and our food supply depends on them. We don’t exterminate honey bees. If you have what you think is a wasp nest, get the species ID right before treatment, because:

  • Honey bees in walls or soffits. Live colonies in structures need cutout removal by a beekeeper, not extermination. We coordinate with a partner.
  • Swarms in trees. A swarm hanging from a tree branch is often gone within 24โ€“48 hours on its own โ€” beekeepers will collect them free if you can’t wait.
  • Yellow jackets and hornets are different. Yellow jackets ground-nest aggressively and build very large colonies. Hornets build football-shaped paper nests in trees and eaves. Both need professional treatment.

For wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets: dusk treatment when activity is low, dust application for ground nests, aerosol injection for paper wasp nests under eaves. For honey bees: live removal coordination. Always proper PPE โ€” DIY treatment is the #1 cause of bee/wasp ER visits in Florida.

Honey Bees: Live Removal

Honey bees are critical pollinators and Florida law (F.S. 586) protects them. We don’t exterminate honey bee colonies โ€” we coordinate live removal with a partner beekeeper for swarms or established hives in walls, soffits, or trees.

Treatment & Safety

Treatment after dusk when wasps are calm and inside the nest. Dust treatment for ground yellow jacket nests; aerosol injection for paper wasp nests under eaves. Always wear protective equipment โ€” DIY removal is the leading cause of Florida sting injuries.

What Customers Say

Real reviews from Central Florida homeowners we’ve helped.

Heard scratching above our bedroom for two weeks. Two other companies wanted to spray pesticide and call it done. Central Florida Trapper actually went into the attic, found the roof rat entry, sealed it, and replaced the contaminated insulation.

A raccoon tore through our soffit and was raising kits. They located the babies, reunited them with mom outside, sealed everything, cleaned the attic. Done in three days. Insurance paid most because the paperwork was so thorough.

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…

Same-day for a snake on our pool deck. Turned out to be a non-venomous black racer, but they explained the difference, removed it safely, and didn’t charge us a panic fee. Will absolutely call again.

Yes โ€” when applied per label and dry (usually 2โ€“4 hours after treatment). We use products approved for residential use and explain re-entry intervals before treatment.

Depends on the pest. Cockroach gel bait shows results in 5โ€“10 days. Mosquito barrier is immediate. Ant baits take 7โ€“14 days to eliminate the colony. We follow up to confirm.

Both. One-time treatments for active issues, and scheduled programs (monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly) for prevention. We don’t lock you into multi-year contracts.

We re-treat at no charge if the same pest returns within the warranty period. Specifics depend on the pest and treatment โ€” we put it in writing on the invoice.
