What Honest Bee Removal Looks Like in La Puente
We get a lot of calls from La Puente homeowners who have already been through a bad experience with another bee removal company. The story is usually the same: someone came out, sprayed something, collected a check, and left. A few weeks later the bees were back. Sometimes worse than before.
When you call APA Bee Removal, here is what actually happens:
- 📞 You call or text us — describe what you’re seeing, send a photo if you can. We tell you what it is and what it will cost before we drive out. No surprises.
- 🔍 We inspect first — we walk the property, locate all entry points, and assess the colony before touching anything. This takes 10–15 minutes and changes everything about how we approach the job.
- 🐝 We remove everything — bees, queen, brood, honeycomb, and honey. Not just the bees you can see.
- 🧪 We treat the void — enzyme solution that neutralizes the pheromones left behind. Without this step, the next swarm moves right back in.
- 🔧 We repair the opening — and seal all nearby entry points. You do not need to call anyone else.
“Our goal is not to sell you something you don’t need. If it’s a swarm and it’ll move on, we’ll tell you. If it’s a colony inside your wall, we’ll tell you that too — and exactly what it takes to fix it.”

Pricing Transparency — What Bee Removal Costs in La Puente
Swarm Removal
A swarm that has not yet built comb — hanging from a tree, fence, or exterior surface. The simplest type of removal. We relocate the colony quickly and humanely.
Most affordable option — call for a free phone estimate
Accessible Hive Removal
Colony has started building comb in an accessible location — open eave, shed, exposed porch structure, or tree cavity. Requires extraction of comb but no major structural access.
Mid-range — free estimate before we start
Structural Removal
Colony inside a wall, attic, chimney, or roof. Requires opening the structure, full extraction including all comb and honey, pheromone treatment, and structural repair. Price varies by colony size and access.

Why La Puente Homes Are Vulnerable to Bee Infestations
La Puente’s housing stock is largely made up of post-war construction from the 1950s through 1970s — homes that were built quickly, have settled significantly over the decades, and have aged stucco, wood framing, and roofing that creates numerous access points for bee colonies.
The proximity to the Puente Hills also means La Puente sits within active bee migration territory. Wild colonies moving through the corridor regularly land on La Puente properties during swarm season, and those that find an accessible gap in a wall or soffit will establish quickly.
Most Common Entry Points We Find in La Puente
- 🔧 Weep screeds at the base of stucco walls
- 🏠 Gaps in aging fascia boards and soffits
- 🧱 Hollow CMU block walls along property lines
- 🌳 Tree cavities and hollow fence posts
- 🏠 Roof vents and deteriorated flashing
La Puente Bee Removal FAQ
We serve La Puente regularly and can usually have someone out same-day. Emergency calls — active aggressive colony, bees near children or pets — are prioritized and we aim to respond as quickly as possible. Our emergency line is available 24/7 at (626) 336-1373.
If bees are consistently using the same entry point, they have almost certainly built a colony in the wall void. The hive can be much larger than what you see at the entrance — a colony that has been established for 2–3 months can have 20,000–40,000 bees and 20+ pounds of honeycomb. Call us for an assessment.
We recommend against partial removals because they almost always result in re-infestation and secondary damage that costs more to fix. However, we understand budget is a reality. Call us and explain your situation honestly — we will tell you what the minimum necessary scope is to prevent the problem from getting significantly worse, and we will give you a straight price.
