Beekeeping since 1990
My husband really wanted to save the bees and not just have them exterminated. From the moment I called Shirley and spoke to her about our bee problem, I knew that Ace Bees was the company we wanted to use. Shirley was knowledgeable, informative and very friendly. Her husband and son came out to take a look! I was able to chat with Horacio a bit and he is also extremely knoweldgeable and friendly. They spent over four hours ridding our soffits of a huge number of honeycombs and bees and repairing the area where the honeycombs were. Looks great. They were professional and friendly throughout the entire experience and I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing bee service!! So glad we found them to save our bees! It was a great experience working with them and a pleasure to meet them.
Like having friends in the bee biz. Kept me informed of each step in the process. No surprises. Perfect service.
I was in the process of selling my home when it was discovered that I had a bee problem. Shirley was friendly and knowledgeable regarding my situation. Her husband came out to my home the next morning and quickly determined the resolution to safely remove the bees. I am now bee free and couldn’t be more satisfied with their service. I highly recommend . Thanks Ace Bees!!!!
I would highly recommend Ace Bees, and would not hesitate to use them if I ever had another bee problem. Shirley and Horatio were wonderful to work with, as well as very friendly and knowledgeable. Horatio came to our house and removed the bee hive in our soffit. The work was very well done, and the price very reasonable. It is so nice to work with honest friendly people!
Shirley and Horacia did a great job. Professional, thorough, love what they’re doing, and they even figured out that I wanted to “suit up” and join in the fun. We ended up with almost 2 quarts of honey after I followed Shirley’s simple directions (chop up the combs, let them drain through a colander, then filter through cheesecloth and store at room temp). We’re really glad that we had Ace Bees remove our bees, instead of calling in a regular pest control company. My guess is that if a bunch of pesticide had been sprayed in somehow (the hive was in our soffit area), most of the bees might have been killed, but I bet we would have had a re-visitation. And, eventually, all of that honey probably would have ended up leaking down the wall, into our family room!
Horacio arrived when he said that he would. He put on his beekeeping outfit and began vaccuming up the Africanized bees as they attacked him. He save the honey, cleaned out two hives, painted the inside to remove the smell so the bees would not return, put in fiberglass insulation to take up the space should another queen try to start a hive there and closed up the opening. He explained all his steps and gave us a lot of good information about bees in general. Then he emailed us pictures of the entire process in digital form.
After reading about — and experiencing first hand — how unreliable and unscrupulous some local “bee removers” can be, we were blown away by the service provided by Mr. Acevedo and his son.
Top rate service. Did an outstanding job of removing honey bee hive that was in our floor joist. Both Horatio and Shirley took their time to explain the process, and made it more of a “discovery channel” learning experience than just a bee removal. Highly recommend.
