Black Ops Beekeeping

We had noticed bees flying around our eves going in and out of some vents of sorts. I called around to get a quote and provided pictures and a video. Every one of them said they'll need to cut into the roof and would be costly for the process. When I had reached out to Black Ops Beekeeping, Marco was the only one that suggested an inspection of the attic first and the removal would be simpler and less costly. He was able to make it out right away. Upon entering the attic, he was able to see a hive and said he'd be able to tackle it then and there. Marco showed pictures of the whole process and even covered up the point of entry so that this wouldn't happen again. I really love Marco's transparency and thoroughness. If anyone in is looking for live bee removal services, Black Ops Beekeeping are the people to go to! I can't thank Marco enough!

Marco did an amazing job for live and humane removal of Bees from the exterior vent. He was very punctual , explained everything clearly and in detail, and proposed the best option. He was able to remove the bees and the hive and clean them perfectly. Thankfully, there was no need to remove any walls or stucco. I am very pleased with his work and recommend him to anyone with similar issues.

We called when we noticed a large group of bees on the side of the house and Marco was out in an hour. He said he was going to start with least invasive methods to remove them and go from there, and luckily he was able to remove the queen and relocate the whole colony without cutting into anything. I’m so grateful he came out so quickly and was so easy to work with, clearly knowledgeable, and able to humanely move them to a safer place!

Amazing work. Took out a huge beehive out of my chimney and capped it off and made sure they’re not going to come back. And best part is he was able to transfer them To Fallbrook at a Bee farm so we can save our precious bees

Marco responded promptly to my email, formulated a quote and set a date very efficiently . He was on time for the appointment got right to it keeping me informed as he progressed cleaned up and was gone in a mater of hours. I would highly recommend him and Black ops to anyone needing hive removal.

Had a problem over the weekend and received a rapid response from Marco. These guys clearly know what they are doing and were very easy to work with. By 10 am on Monday the bees were gone without any issues. Highly recommend Black Ops Beekeeping!

Absolutely outstanding service from Marco & Bella.They were incredibly professional and fast while removing a massive bee colony from my roof. They answered all my questions, and even sent me some amazing photos of the hive. I think what really sets them apart is their ethics: instead of exterminating, they safely relocated the bees, which means the world to me. I honestly can’t recommend Marco & Bella highly enough. 🐝

Bee relocation not extermination. Great guy, seems to be a small shop with him and his partner. Got to keep my honey!

Marco was so friendly and educated. He shared about his family business and their incredible work with bees. He was quick and took care of our little friends easily. Happy to know they’re going to good place. He also gave us a jar of his black sage honey & it’s delicious!! Thank you team.

I just had my bees nest removed. Marco was very knowledgeable and professional. He kept his appointment on time and finished the work very decent.

Marco came to take away the beehive that has been in my chimney for more than two years. He was professional, kind, timely, and he cleaned up well after himself. Great to work with.

We noticed bee activity in our ice plant and gave Marco a call. He was out the same day to check it out and identified that they were actually yellow jackets. He came back at dusk when they were less active and was able to kill the nest. We really appreciate the prompt service and also the follow up making sure they didn’t return. I highly recommend Marco and Black Ops Beekeeping!

Reasonably priced, knowledgable, effective, professional, courteous and I love that they rehome the bees!!

Marco at Black Ops was awesome. Came out the same day to remove a large hive in my irrigation box.

Black Ops was professional, friendly, empathetic, efficient and I learned a thing or two as well. It was a bittersweet day because I had wanted to save our bees but time and bee stings were quickly taking that choice away from me. I couldn't have asked for nicer people or better service. Trust me. Trust them.

What a great company. Marco and Bella arrived on time, and did a great job. We had a huge hive in our roof/ceiling. They came out and performed a quick and courteous job at a very reasonable price. Thanks so much Marco and Bella

We had Marco out to remove a large beehive under our shed. Before coming out he thoroughly explained the process and provided a solid estimate. He arrived promptly and did great work removing about 40,000 bees safely. He cleaned and repaired the area and sealed off the opening to hopefully deter bees from entering in the future. His price was very reasonable and his work was outstanding. I highly recommend Marco and Black Ops for any bee removal needs!

Top Notch pros! These guys were super responsive, providing a quote and service within 24 hours. Actually got it done within I think 3 hours, on a holiday weekend. Happily recomend!

Marco and Bella were incredibly professional from start to finish. Marco was great with communication and scheduling — completely reliable and easy to work with. His experience in construction was clear in how confidently and thoroughly he approached the job. Marco used a thermal camera to pinpoint the exact size and location of the massive hive, which made a huge difference in tackling the problem properly. They quickly came up with a solid plan to remove the hive hidden behind drywall, and the company sent a clear, detailed, and very fair estimate outlining every part of the work. On the day of removal, they built a sealed plastic containment area inside the house to prevent bees from escaping during the process. What really sets them apart is that they do things the right way — full hive removal, sanitation, sealing, and they even relocate the bees to a bee farm. In this case, the bees had been entering from outside the house near the fireplace, but the hive itself had to be removed from inside. My father had paid someone else previously, but the issue wasn’t fully addressed until Black Ops stepped in. Marco led the work on-site and was fantastic throughout, and Bella was great support as well — very kind and helpful. They back their work with a two-year guarantee, and I’m confident the problem is fully resolved now. Highly recommend!

Fantastic team! They handle everything you don't want to!

Marco took care of my bee problem and was very professional. He took the time to explain everything and was not in an hurry — at all. Moreso he was a likeable person and I’d recommend his company without reservation.

Marco was great to work with! He was able to come to the house and remove a hive immediately. Awesome service, great pricing and fast service! Thank you Marco

I originally contacted Black Ops Bees about a bee problem about a year ago, but due to unforeseen circumstances, I wasn’t able to move forward with the removal at that time. Nearly a year later, I reached out to Black Ops Beekeeping again, and they honored my original quote. The technician arrived promptly and safely removed the bees and honeycomb from our irrigation box. She opened the box, collected the bees alive, removed everything carefully, and sealed the hole to prevent future issues. Now several weeks later, bees have not returned and I can enjoy my back yard again. Highly recommend this company.

We recommend Black Ops Beekeeping if you need bee removal. We had a swarm of bees in a big bush in our front yard. Marco came out the same day we called and he took them to an avocado orchard. He did a great job and we like that he didn’t kill them. 🐝🐝🐝

Marco was incredibly helpful when we realized we had a bee issue last week- he was able to come out same day and relocate our bees. Super friendly guy too, I would highly recommend his services!

Awesome and fast service! We have a dog that could die from 1 sting so having someone come quickly is top priority

Marco was awesome, he came and got a swarm of bees from our property and had them relocated safely within an hour. Awesome service and great timing!

Marco and Isabella were amazing! They arrived within 30 minutes of our call and handled our bee problem with total professionalism. They took the time to explain how and why the hive formed, and we really appreciated that the bees will be relocated to a place where they can thrive. Couldn’t have asked for better service!”

Marco and assistant did a fantastic job removing 2 large hives that were under the floor of my Tuff Shed. They removed the floor area and replaced it perfectly after job done. I would give them more stars if it was possible

Black Ops Beekeeping knows its bees! Not only did they fearlessly find the beehive, but they also gave me information on attracting more bees to my avocado trees. I know who to call for all my bee needs--Black Ops Beekeeping! 🐝🐝🐝
