Safe and Ethical Bee Rehoming in North Lincolnshire & South Yorkshire

Bees play a vital role in our ecosystem, and at D & G Pest Control in Scunthorpe, we understand just how important it is to treat them with care.

If you’ve discovered a bee nest on your property, don’t panic—and please don’t try to remove it yourself.

We offer professional, humane bee rehoming services across North Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, working closely with local beekeepers to ensure bees are safely relocated, not harmed.

Why Are Bees Nesting on My Property?

Bees seek out safe, sheltered spots to nest—often in chimneys, roof spaces, wall cavities, compost bins, or bird boxes. These locations provide protection from the weather and predators, making your home or garden an appealing choice for a new colony.

Warm spring and summer months are when you’re most likely to notice increased bee activity. While bees are generally not aggressive, a growing colony can pose problems if it’s too close to living areas or frequently used paths. That’s when it’s time to call in the experts.

The Importance of Protecting Bees

Bees are essential pollinators, supporting food crops and native plant life. Their numbers are under threat from habitat loss, pesticides, and disease—so every nest matters.

That’s why D & G Pest Control never uses harmful methods or pesticides on bees. Our goal is always to relocate, not remove.

We partner with experienced beekeepers who safely transport the colony to a suitable new location, where they can continue their vital work without conflict.

Our Bee Rehoming Process

  1. Inspection: We identify the type of bee and assess the location of the nest.

  2. Planning: If rehoming is possible (and it almost always is), we coordinate with a local beekeeper.

  3. Safe Collection: The nest is carefully extracted using gentle, non-invasive methods.

  4. Relocation: The bees are transferred to a managed hive or wild-friendly area, well away from homes or businesses.

We handle every case with care, compassion, and respect for both you and the bees.

How to Recognise a Bee Nest

Bee nests can sometimes be mistaken for wasps or hornets, but there are a few key indicators:

  • Bee Type: Honey bees, bumblebees, and masonry bees all behave differently. We’ll identify the species and choose the safest rehoming method accordingly.

  • Location: Nests are often hidden in walls, lofts, tree hollows, or outbuildings.

  • Buzzing and Activity: High traffic in and out of a small gap or hole is often the first visible sign of a nearby nest.

If you’re unsure, don’t attempt to move or block access to the nest—this can agitate the bees and make the situation worse. Instead, let us assess and advise with care.

Respectful Help When You Need It

If you’re a homeowner or business in North Lincolnshire or Yorkshire dealing with a bee nest, know that there’s a safe, ethical solution. At D & G Pest Control in Scunthorpe, we’re proud to support our local ecosystem while also keeping your property safe.

Reach out to us for calm, expert advice—we’ll make sure your bees are looked after properly, and you are too.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Had a wasp nest at the front of the house and gave Glyn a ring. He turned up bang on time, fully prepared, and got straight to work. Proper professional, knew exactly what he was doing and didn't mess about. Job was done quickly, no fuss, and the wasps haven’t been back since. He kept his word and even gave a guarantee for the work.

If you’re in Scunthorpe and need someone reliable, Glyn’s your man. Top service, fair price, and a good deal to deal with. Highly recommended.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Glyn handled the OS issue quickly, without any fuss or fuss. Punctual, to the point, and knows his stuff. He speaks clearly, and his English accent is easy to understand, even if you're not fluent. The price is fair, the work is guaranteed, and Glyn is a decent guy. I recommend him to anyone in the area!

I highly recommend using this company! Glynn has been amazing; he came the very next day and started treatment. Issue with pests in my roof, and nothing was too much trouble. Just great to have him at the end of a phone call and he came when it was convenient to keep checking. Don’t look anywhere else!

Called Glyn on a Saturday night about a possible mouse problem in the loft. He came out Sunday morning, identified the issue and laid bait. He will come out as many times as it takes to rectify the issue. Excellent service and would definitely recommend. Many thanks Glyn
