Mr. V’s Bees provides live honey bee removal and relocation for Houston, focusing on the northwest side of the metro. Live removal captures the colony and rehomes it to a working hive instead of destroying it – kinder to the pollinators and a more permanent fix for the property. A member of the Texas Association of Professional Bee Removers.
Requests move through simple online forms: one for bee relocation jobs and another for reporting swarms, so a homeowner can flag a clustered swarm hanging on a fence post as easily as a colony established inside a wall. Beyond removals, the operation is unusually education-minded – it offers a “Removal 101” class for those who want to learn how live extractions are actually done, and it is connected with the NW Houston Beekeepers community.
Bees, honey, and ag exemptions
Mr. V’s Bees also sells honey and wax products and assists Texas landowners with agricultural exemptions – the special property valuation that beekeeping can qualify smaller acreage for under state law. In Houston’s mild Gulf Coast climate, swarm season arrives early and runs roughly March through June, when colonies divide and scouts hunt for cavities in walls, sheds, and water meter boxes across the northwest Harris County suburbs. Call to describe where the bees are and schedule a visit, or use the relocation form on the website; terms and any fees are set by the beekeeper.
