Are Honeybees protected?
It is a common misconception that bees are protected.
They are in fact endangered. It is however important to take care in the removal of bees as the honeycomb is a human food source and any contamination by pesticides or insecticides can have severe consequences. If this is not carried out properly then large fines can be enforced as a result of many laws having been broken. Furthermore these fines will be placed against both the property owner and the person that carried our the poisoning. As a result the incorrect removal or illegal treatment of a honeycomb could result in a fine of up to £20,000

We as swarm collectors cannot put any member of the public or ourselves at risk by undertaking swarm collection in dangerous or hazardous environments.
Whilst no one would wish to see a colony of honey bees destroyed, if they cannot be safely removed and they present a risk or disturbance to the property owner, the only option may be to have the colony destroyed by us at Pest Mortem Pest Control but this is a last resort.

Post treatment of killing a honey bee nest
If having killed off a colony of bees we would suggest that you still have it removed. All the dead honey bees will be a great place for clothes moths and carpet beetle to breed in, Later on these clothes moths and carpet beetle will run out of food and be looking for other food sources, namely wool carpets, woolen suits, jumpers, silk dresses, etc . We have always found wax moth larvae in feral honey bee nests, once the bees are dead there will be no controlling the wax moth, and the wax moth will eat there way thru the wax and in doing so will releasing the honey which often ends up dripping thru ceilings and other places.
You would be surprised at how many properties we go to remove previously poisoned honey bee nests, because of the dripping honey or the realisation that the clothes moth infestation is as a result of the dead bees nest. People regularly believe that the poison would be adequate to kill of these other pests too , but it never seem to work like that.
