Established Hives
A hive inside a wall or roof has comb and honey. Removing only the bees leaves honey that attracts new swarms and can seep through ceilings, so ask whether comb removal and sealing are included.

Bee & Wasp Removal Questions
Will the bees be killed?
Many removers relocate swarms and hives alive. Ask before you appoint anyone.
Can I remove a wasp nest myself?
Small nests can be, but stings in numbers are dangerous and European wasps defend nests aggressively. A professional is safer, especially at height.
Why do bees keep coming back to the same spot?
Old comb and scent attract new swarms. Removing comb and sealing the gap stops it.
