Scott did a great job removing the giant hive we had in our palm tree. Great communication and followup!

Scott was professional, prompt and took great care to remove the bee hive so that both critters and humans were safe. I really appreciate that he does not kill the bees but relocates them to hives where they can thrive without endangering anyone. I didn't realize about 90% of Arizona's honeybees are Africanized now. It is good to know they are productive bees also and shouldn't just be exterminated. Disappointing to learn the other business just kill them. I will recommend Scott to anyone who has a bee "situation". It cost a bit more to move them rather than just kill them but knowing how compromised out bee population is currently, I'm glad I could help out this way. You did a great job Scott. Thank you for the service you provide. read more

Bees had infiltrated the eaves of my home and built their hive. In a matter of days I had hundreds of bees in my backyard. I contacted Scott and he was very responsive. I explained the situation and forwarded photos of my home and the bees for his review. He was at my home the next morning at which time he humanely removed the Queen, the hive and the bees. I'm very grateful to him. I'm very happy to have averted extensive damage to my home. I highly recommend his services. read more

Scott is thorough and conscientious. He cares about his valued customers, the structure he is clearing, and the bees! I would recommend Scott the Bee Man for all humane hive/bee removal. Don't exterminate, RELOCATE! read more

Highly recommend Scott! Super knowledgeable..very kind and patient. And truly cares about the welfare of the bees, and the location of the bees to humans and pets. read more

I had a pretty decent sized beehive in the wall behind my stucco. I called Scott and he was there that day to assess the situation and then back the next day to take care of the bees. It's not a fun thing to have happened, but Scott knows what he's doing and I appreciate his services. read more

We noticed a couple of bees and 3 days later found a hive that was buzzing with activity right next to a door into my husband's office!

While we ultimately did not have a major bee issue, Scott came by to check out the problem. We had a few dead bees showing up in the house. He was very responsive, knowledgeable and thorough. He didn't charge us to come assess the situation, which I very much appreciated, and told us keep an eye on certain areas that we might have to rescreen if the issue gets worse. All in all, hopefully we don't have to call him back, but if we do I'd be glad to give him the work. Thanks! read more

I highly recommend Scott! We were able to connect quickly, he reached out when he had an opening in his schedule and came by earlier than scheduled, explained everything and answered all my questions, and removed the bees for a very reasonable price. He followed up for several days after the removal to make sure there were no issues. I highly recommend him! read more

I reached out to Scott after seeing and hearing bees in my backyard block wall. It was important to me to have a live bee removal. I sent Scott a picture and he quickly confirmed I did in fact have a hive in the wall and a large one. He quickly got me scheduled and removed the bees for a reasonable price. He then provided information for a mason who repaired the wall after an appropriate time to ensure all the bees were gone. The mason also charged a fair price and completed the job quickly. I would recommend Scott, he was able to save bees and transfer them to bee boxes. Thank You Scott! read more

I am giving Scott 5 Stars just for his help on the phone. I didn't even have to use him as the bees did eventually leave my property the day after I called him, but this guy knows his stuff! He is super helpful and was nice enough to look at some photos of the bees on my phone and told me to wait a day and he would come out with an upfront price if they stayed around. Great service I can tell already just from one phone call! read more

Scott was very responsive and quick to help us out with our bees even though it was the weekend. He took his time examining all the places where the bees were entering the house and got those stopped up, and then made a plan for gentle bee removal that would not harm the bees. I highly recommend his services! read more

Scott the Bee Man - 3 paper wasp nests - Pest Control Near Me

Scott is so knowledgeable and kind. He understands that any home issue is unnerving and puts the homeowner at ease. We appreciate his commitment to a safe way to take care of bees that actually works - we've heard that exterminators aren't the way to go as they don't actually solve the problem (and charge exorbitant rates). Scott is honest, fair and a true pleasure to work with. If we ever have bee issues again, Scott will be my first call! read more

Could not possibly recommend Scott more! Experienced, quick to respond, extremely knowledgeable, efficient, professional, and very affordable! Had a hive find its way into a wall in my house, gave Scott a call (per someone's rec on the Nextdoor app), and--thanks to his beekeeping wizardry--he had the bees completely out by the following afternoon. If you're encountering bee troubles, DO NOT call an exterminator--a dead hive is a catalyst for other unwanted critter infestations (rats, roaches, future hives, etc). Instead, do yourself a favor and have this expert, local bee keeper do a safe, effective, efficient, and affordable live removal! Thank you, Scott! read more

We've used Scott for a hive we had trying to relocate to our Olive Trees in the front yard. He was fast, professional and efficient! If you've got a bee problem call Scott, you won't need any other number!! Thanks Scott! read more

We had bees around our porch roof for a week and stumbled upon Scott's number. He answered immediately and after explaining what we saw, I sent photos and videos. Definitely a hive, we just couldn't see it. Scott came over the next day and did the bee removal. He had to cut into a small section of drywall and there was a massive hive! He sent pictures of the hive and honeycomb that came from it. It was very cool to see! We'll be calling Scott if we ever have bee problems again! read more

Scott was amazing! I wish he was located in California. His love for the bees and what he does is palpable. He gave me a wonderful and extremely helpful consultation about a bad bee situation caused by a pest control company. Thank you Scott ! read more

A bee swarm showed up yesterday on the elm tree in my front yard. My neighbor has grandkids and was concerned about the bees. I found Scott The Bee Man on the Go Gilbert Facebook group, he was highly recommended. I read his website and was pleased to see that he was a bee keeper and would not exterminate the bees. I called him and was not expecting much, it being a Saturday. It was a nice surprise that he took my call, listened to my concerns, and best of all scheduled bee colony removal this Sunday morning. He patiently educated me on bees and their behavior and habits, even explaining it was not necessary to remove the bees, they would likely leave in a couple of days. He took the time to inspect the exterior of my home. He vacuumed the bees in just minutes, was careful to ensure that he got the queen bee. He also explained that some bees may possibly return and if that happened, just call him. I was happy to learn he and his wife actually operate a bee farm in Phoenix and they sell honey and pollen. I immediately requested to have my name added to their mailing list. The service was excellent and the price reasonable. I know that living in Arizona means co-existing with bugs and creatures and that the bees would be back. I would definitely call Scott again in the future when the bees return. read more

HIGHLY recommend Scott The Bee Man - and I rarely write reviews so that says a lot. He was fairly priced, professional, honest and went way above and beyond with customer service and the job itself. I never felt pressured and he thoroughly explained every step and what to expect - before, during and after the process. Even long after the job was done he followed up several times to check on his work. He happened to also notice my skylight leaked and fixed that while he was on the roof dealing with the bee issue. He said he felt bad about the leak and did not even charge me for the extra work. Although I hope never to have to need Scott's services again - you should know who to call if you find yourself with a bee issue. He was terrific! read more

I called twice, left my name and phone number both times, and didn't get a return call. It would be more professional to at least respond to say he couldn't help my situation or he was on vacation or whatever the case was. Super disappointing since this is a local company and beekeepers aren't something I need frequently. He had fantastic reviews and I was looking forward to learning what he had to say about my flying, stinging insects and giving him my business (the bugs were a question mark at the time I called - I've since found out they were parasitic wasps). Anyway, I hope to never need a beekeeper ever again, but if I do, I'll use the Beehive Bee and Wasp Removal in Ahwatukee since they were responsive and helpful. read more

Scott provided professional, quick, humane service when we were notified by guests at our local vacation home that we had a huge bee hive.  Scott came out the next day for service. The following day, a new swarm was attempting to move into our olive tree where the old hive had been. Scott returned immediately and relocated the new hive as well. We are now bee free and our guests can enjoy our backyard safely. I highly recommend Scott to relocate any hive that is causing you trouble! read more

We phoned Scott yesterday, and he answered right away, providing good advice for dealing with a bee invasion until he could deal with it this morning. He vacuumed up the swarm and gave us recommendations for preventing future bee settlements. He will re-home the swarm with a new European queen, and he tells us that they'll be making honey by tomorrow. He followed up later in the day with a text to ensure we weren't seeing any more bees, and he provided guidance on patching/filling the void where the swarm had set up shop to prevent future incursions. We were impressed with his knowledge and professionalism, and we would certainly recommend him to our friends. read more

Highly recommend. Got the hive out of my tree at a reasonable price. Other exterminators wanted to charge me 3 times more to kill the bees and Scott was able to get rid of the hive with most of bees still alive. read more

We had a pretty large hive in our yard with lots of bees swarming around it. I called Scott and he came out the following morning and removed the entire hive. He was very nice and knowledgeable and I would definitely use him again and recommend him to anyone having a bee problem. read more

I cannot recommend Scott highly enough. Professional, thorough, clearly an expert in his field. He honored his very reasonable quote even when it turned out our bee situation was far worse then could have been imagined. I miss professionals like this who have integrity and work hard and have values. He went above and beyond for us in multiple ways and I grateful. read more

Scott came to our rescue over the weekend. Several bees had collected in a bathroom ceiling. I called Scott, based on positive Yelp reviews. He came right out and figured out what was going on with the bees. He is smart, trustworthy and reliable. I give him the highest recommendation. read more

Sent a text and left a voicemail message. No response. Maybe they have gone out of business.

I had a swarm of bees in my tree for a good three days. I contacted Scott The Bee Man because I was nervous about the bees because of my kids and my neighbors. He guided me though the process after I sent him pictures and advised me to give it some time and they would leave on their own. Sure enough, the swarm is gone after a couple of days. Definitely would recommend!​ read more

I want to give a shout out to the beekeeper who rearranged his schedule and got to our house immediately once he saw the size of the swarm we had on our wall. Scott doesn't kill the bees. He removes them and puts them in a new colony, out of harms way where they can do nature's work of pollinating. This is important because we need the pollinators, but also because dead bees draw in more bees, which keeps making the problem recur. Anyway--we went from no bees to somewhere between 10,000-15,000 aggressive bees (5 POUNDS OF BEES) in less than 1/2 hour! Scott arrived at our house within an hour of seeing the photo I sent him. That's major customer service! read more

Scott was great! Anyone who has a bee problem should definitely call Scott. He is extremely knowledgeable, caring, thorough and a really nice guy. He gets the job done correctly. I was at my Mom and Dad's house in Surprise, AZ when we noticed a swarm of bees in the backyard. After doing extensive research on who to call, we found Scott and called him. We spoke to him on the phone regarding what was happening, I took photos and text them to him. After speaking to him on the phone we knew he was the right guy for the job. Scott came out to our home and we are so grateful we found him! I highly recommend him to anyone who has a bee problem!!! read more

I highly recommend Scott. We heard bees in our ceiling/walls and called him after reading other reviews. He was at my house in less than 30 minutes, found the hive using his thermal camera and got it taken care of within 2 hours. He even texted me multiple times over the following week to confirm that the bees had fully abandoned the area he removed the hive from. I can't say enough good things about his work and his expertise. read more

Found a small swarm gathering in a container outside. Called Scott and he gave me some great advice after I text him a few pictures. His advice worked and it actually prevented him from coming and me having to pay! Very honest. Very responsive. I will for sure call Scott again in the future if I need help with bees. Thanks, Scott! read more

Scott is so knowledgeable about bees and was a pleasure to work with. I found his number and called him in a panic late Sunday as I had a swarm form on a tree outside my house out of nowhere! I've lived here almost 6 years now and this has been my first bee encounter of this capacity. Even though it ended up going another route he touched base with me to ensure everything went well at my house with my bee problem. I would highly recommend Scott and will definitely use him in the future (but I hope I don't have to!) thanks again Scott! read more

I found a beehive on my house one evening and called Scott the Bee Man first thing the next morning. He returned my call almost immediately and was out at my house by 10:00 am taking care of my problem. He did a great job. Took all the bees, beehive and cleaned up anything that the bees had left. He explained what to do from there to safeguard against bees invading again. I am very happy with his service and would call him again if I (hopefully not!) ever have a problem with bees again read more

Scott was easy to contact and responds well to text messages. We texted over the course of 2 days and he had a same day appointment. I had a carpenter bee issue in 2 areas. He vacuumed up as many bees as possible and then located the hives and destroyed them. He was quick and efficient. Worth every penny. The bees are gone! read more

Scott is awesome! We saw a cluster of resting bees this morning, so I gave him a call. He was able to come out same day, and he was able to remove the bees quickly, humanely, and easily. I highly recommend him and his services!! read more

Super responsive despite the lockdown - we had bees try to move in while our garage was under construction, and Scott came by twice to make sure they were not becoming permanent residents! Scott was very knowledgeable about their behavior and thankfully they were not a problem! read more

The is the second time I've used Scott to remove a bee hive. The first time went without a hitch. A second hive appeared a year later. It was important for us to preserve these magical creatures and we wanted an experienced professional who shared our desire not to kill the bees. The hive was tucked into a crevice on our roof and was at least a year old. Scott warned us about the need the cut into the roof and the risks involved with job. He was true to his quote and within a few hours had removed the hive. Scott is personable, upfront and caress about his work. He is easy to communicate with and since completing the job he has touched base several times to see how the area looked and confirm that the bee issue was resolved. I would strongly recommend him. I did not entertain any other quotes or bids as I saw no reason to look elsewhere after the first job he did at our home. read more

Scott is amazing. I called him about bees buzzing around the side of our house and he was there within a few hours. He discovered a large nest in our garage wall and removed it within a couple of days. Scott is very knowledgeable about bees and their behavior....I learned a lot just talking with him. Prompt, efficient, great follow up ! Highly recommend. read more
