First bee removal of the season done today.
This colony had moved into a soffit and were a bit grumpy when disturbed, but using my purpose‑built bee vac I was able to extract them safely and calmly. I opened the soffit slightly further to reach the full comb structure, and the removal went extremely smoothly.

Their comb has been returned to the bees in their new hive, and the leftover wax will be rendered down for future foundation, candles, and our approved soap, nothing wasted.

The colony is now settling into a brand‑new Langstroth hive in my quarantine apiary for monitoring before they join the main apiary.

If you spot bees entering a soffit, roof space, shed or chimney, I offer ethical, welfare‑first removals across the island.

Swarm Season Reminder

We’re now heading into swarming season on the Isle of Man.If you spot a cluster of honeybees gathering on a branch, fence, wall, vehicle, or anywhere unusual, don’t panic, swarms are usually calm and just looking for a new home.

If you see a swarm, or have one on your property, Bee Manx will collect it free of charge and safely rehome it in a managed apiary to protect our island’s rare Varroa‑free bees.

We also carry out full bee removals from roofs, chimneys, sheds, barns and other structures.These are more complex and require specialist equipment, so removal work is a chargeable service.

Not sure if it’s bees or wasps? Send a photo and we’ll identify it for you.

🐝 Mission: Bee Relocation – Success!🐝

Over the past two days, we’ve been hard at work on the same property, carefully removing two bee colonies from under a flat roof. It’s been a delicate operation, ensuring the safety of both the bees and the property while relocating them to a better home.

Bees are such a vital part of our ecosystem, and it’s always a rewarding experience to give them a second chance in a safer environment. These little pollinators now have a new place to thrive, and the property is finally bee-free! 🏡✨

If you ever find yourself in a sticky situation with bees, Bee Manx is here to help! 📞 Call 07624 07624 400704 for expert bee relocation services.

A Hidden Danger: Why Sealing Matters After Insecticide Use

When a bee colony is treated with insecticide, the impact goes beyond what meets the eye. The immediate loss is devastating but the danger doesn’t end when the buzzing stops.

Today’s removal was a sobering reminder of this. Last year, this hive was treated with permethrin dust, and the colony didn’t survive. But even after their silence settled in, the site remained open, carrying the scent of a lost home.

That lingering invitation drew scout bees in, searching for a place to start anew. Unknowingly, they were walking into a trap. The toxins remained, unseen but deadly, threatening yet another colony before they even had a chance to begin.

💀 How Can Residual Insecticides Harm Other Bees?
🐝 Scout bees face exposure. They enter contaminated areas, contact insecticide residues, and unwittingly carry traces back to their own colonies.
🧪 New swarms may try to move in. If they settle, they risk slow poisoning, leading to weakened bees, failed brood development, and eventual hive collapse.
🌍 Pollinators beyond the hive suffer. Insecticide dust can spread, contaminating nearby flowers. Foragers then unknowingly collect tainted nectar and pollen, which affects entire ecosystems.

🔒 The Solution: Seal After Treatment
If insecticide must be used, responsible follow-up is critical:
✔ Block all entry points. Prevent scouts and swarms from accessing the contaminated site.
✔ Remove any remaining comb. Old wax and honey can hold toxins long after a colony is gone.
✔ Monitor for activity. Even sealed sites can attract curious scouts, so watch for signs of new arrivals.

🐝 Think before you spray. And if treatment is unavoidable, always seal afterward.

💛 Every bee matters. Let’s protect, not poison.
