Great. Quick, neat and knowledgeable. The bees could not be transferred or saved. He also sent a very reasonable repair service to clean out the remaining honey and repair the siding.

The owner sprayed the two entries in a few minutes although one was able to penetrate his netting and sting him in the face. The application requires 48 hours to completely take effect but I am confident it will be successful.
Description of Work: Bees had infiltrated the house in the front and the rear in the past week. Although the siding had been replaced with Hardi and thoroughly sealed with 30# roofing paper, flashing and caulk, they were able to infiltrate at the interfaces with the brick. These were the large, aggressive and Africanized bees, not the typical honey bee.

She brought a honeycomb and transferred the bees from my tree to the honeycomb. Fascinating to watch. She educated us along the way. Humane way to go rather than killing the bees...and then they go on to produce more honey.

Jeff came out and looked around my house where the bees had been over the weekend and outside. He concluded it had been a swarm looking for a new place to locate a hive and that the main group of bees had moved on. He said to call if they came back. He did not charge for giving me this peace of mind. Jeff showed up on time for the appointment, was professional, and very fair. I would highly recommend him for this work.

We discovered a few bees in the house. The next day, when I looked for the hive, we spotted a light swarm in the area where brick meets siding. I called Jeff at Budget Bee the next day. I left a voice message and he called back within the hour. He came out on a Saturday. Was able to get to our house in 30 minutes. He judged the size and age of the hive from the amount of activity around the area. He said it seemed like a new colony. Used a propelled powder to get up under the siding. No removal of boards was necessary. The whole process turned out to be much easier and cheaper than we thought it would be. Would highly recommend Jeff and Budget Bee for responsiveness and professional judgement. Explained not to let colonies get established for too long.
Description of Work: Sprayed powdered pesticide into siding to eliminate new hive.

Description of Work: We had a bee hive forming in the eave by our garage--could see bees going in and out, some getting into the garage itself. We were concerned about the cost of controlling them but also hated killing them -- Budget Bee said he would be willing to take apart the eave to get the hive, but pointed out the hive would likely be very small, given that we'd only noticed bees for a week or two. He also said most bees don't survive being moved...so we had him put dust in the hive (we researched it--supposedly as safe as these things can be--quite a few bees took off so here's hoping they found happier pastures). Gentleman seemed to know his stuff, was very pleasant, worked quickly and cost was very reasonable. Would recommend and would use again.

I was having my siding replaced and the workers noticed honey bees underneath. I called Jeff yesterday and he said he was able to come today to exterminate the bees while the siding was open. He said he charges $95 for the extermination and the extra $155 to cut open the area and remove the honeycombs. One other place I called said they charged $299 minimum just to exterminate the bees so Jeff's base price was a good deal. He originally was going to squeeze me in his other appointments and said he would be in my area in an hour and a half. He actually got to my house within 30 minutes instead. He sprayed the chemicals to get rid of all the bees, opened up a small area and removed all the honeycombs and then sprayed wasp spray inside. He suggested putting foam in the area to prevent the bees from returning. He gives a 6 month warranty. Very fast response and happy so far with results.

I have been quoted bee removal and extermination by a dozen different companies; ALL OF THEM; The Bee Guy, Gotcha, some lady named Christine...just to name a few...quoted HUNDEREDS of dollars worth of work. anywhere from 350 to 758-800 dollars. And they claim, it could be more...that's just me describing the situation over the phone. Well...in desperation, and after two weekends of being ran out of my own yard and stung whilst mowing because those flying bastards kept attacking me whenever I'd mow or edge...I finally came across Budget Bee Control...last Friday I called, and THANK GOD, he happened to be wrapping up a treatment just 2 streets away from me. He was at my place in 10 minutes and 10 minutes after that, my bee problem was well on it's way to being history. NINETY FIVE DOLLARS is all he charged me to spray the side of the house and up in-between the siding... The very next day...only one bee remained, trying to enter under the siding, but everytime he tapped the edge of the house, he'd have to back off...by the end of that day, not a single bee could be found...and I mowed and edged my yard minus multiple bee stings. If they come back, I'll call BUDGET BEE CONTROL again...he was awesome, the service was awesome. THANKS SO MUCH!!!

I noticed a fairly large swarm of bees in my second story eave. I called a beekeeper first. The first call gave me a recommendation for a reputable beekeeper. Sopke to the second beekeeper. He warned me that some of these beekeepers would charge me $700-800 for removal, and his charge was typically $250-$300. This was quite a bit more than I hoped, but I had him come out for an estimate. I wasn't able to be there, but my son was there. Guy came out, didn't have a ladder long enough to reach. My son helped him borrow a ladder from a neighbor and helped him get it to the hive. After inspection, he said it would be $550 for the removal. I was at dinner, but agreed he should come out the next afternoon and do the removal. The next day, I came to my senses and called Budget. He couldn't come out that day, but said his charge would likely be $95.00. I cancelled the beekeeper, and made an appointment with Budget. He came out on the appointed day, sprayed the bees, charged $95.00. Still a few bees the next day, I called and was told if they're still there in a couple of days, call and he would come back. Couple of days later all remnants of the bees were gone. Highly Satisfied.

I seached Angies List and made a phone call to another service and the person answering the phone, hello. This told me that this was not a professional service so I opted out. I selected Budget Bee service because of the good reviews. I called and left a message and within 10 minutes Jeff called. I explained the issue and he quoted a minimum of $95.00. He asked my address and was there within 15 minutes. He took one look and took care of the bees within 20 minutes. He explained that had I not taken care of the problem now it would have turned into a very big problem. The bees were building a hive within the column. I highly recommend Budget Bee Removal and Jeff. He was prompt, quick and his rate is very resonable.
Description of Work: I had a hive of bees on the column by my front door. I have small children and pets and was very concerned that they bees were at my front door.

Jeff was very nice - he showed up on time and was very efficient. He explained what he would be doing. I told him that a different bug exterminator had been there the day before and told me they would have to remove the siding and part of the wall to make sure they got all of the bees. After hearing that the bees had only been there a few days, he explained that removing the wall and siding would not be necessary because they hadn't been there long enough to get that far into the house. He said he would do it if I wanted him to, but after his explanation I did not see the need. So, he could have gotten a lot more money out of me, if he had chosen to do so. I was very pleased and would definitely call Jeff of Budget Bee again! By the way, he is much older than he looks! LOL!
Description of Work: He sprayed the bees and inserted this "chemical" into a spot in the wall where they were going in.

We discovered a bee hive in our roof line. We live in a 2 story home and of course the bee hive was on the upper siding of the roof. I called Budget Bee, left a brief message and within minutes, Jeff called me back. I explained the situation said he would come the next day, but then said he could swing by that same afternoon. 2 hours later, Jeff (owner) was at our home with the equipment and took care of the bee hive within 10 minutes. He then inspected around the house to see if we had more bee hives. Said he guarantees his work for a year. Also for any surprise bee hive anywhere around the house he would come and take care of it within that 1 year warranty. Excellent work, Jeff the owner is very reliable, courteous and efficient. For the efficiency, the warranty and the job well done call Jeff, you can't go wrong, we highly recommend him.

Jeff told me over the phone what the starting price was and when he arrived he introduced himself. I showed him the bees and he explained he would spray them and then caulk the hole. Because it was in the garage the siding didn't have to be removed. He did the job in about 20 minutes. Nice guy, good work.
Description of Work: Jeff told me on the phone that rates started at $95.00 for a small job. When he got to my house he told me it would be $95.00 for him to spray the bees and then caulk the hole where they were living. Job well done and taken care of.

I thought I had a bee infestation in my wall so I looked for bee removal companies. I found 3 local to me and placed calls with each. Jeff from Budget Bee Removal was the only one to promptly return my call and setup an appointment for the very next day. He provided a great deal of information and asked several questions during the phone call and provided an estimate to take a look at the problem and said that if it matched what we described he would be able to do the job for the estimated quote. He called 30 minutes before the appointment to confirm we were home and he did arrive promptly on time. This is always a bonus when you need to take time off to meet service people. He quickly assessed the problem, which were not bees but hornets. He proceeded to exterminate the hornets and remove the nest from inside the wall. He was careful not to do damage to the facade or wall, cleaned up nicely, and charged just the quoted amount. The extermination was very successful and we are free of hornets! Jeff did a great job and I would highly recommend him.
