Ed’s Bee Wrangling answers honey bee calls throughout Wharton from a base in Wharton, Texas, where beekeeper Ed Veiseh works from a farm on the county roads outside town. Wharton County sits southwest of Houston along the US 59/I-69 corridor, in coastal prairie country where long growing seasons keep honey bee colonies busy — and occasionally put them inside someone’s wall.
Rather than exterminating, live-removal beekeepers safely capture the colony and relocate it to a managed apiary whenever possible — protecting the bees while solving the problem on your property. Ed removes hives from houses, trees, and other structures, working carefully around both the residents and the bees, and the relocated colonies go on to live at bee farms rather than being destroyed. This is no sideline, either: Veiseh took Ed’s Bee Wrangling full-time in 2019 and now manages more than 200 colonies spread across some 23 farms in the region.
Deep roots in the removal community
Ed’s Bee Wrangling is a member of the Texas Association of Professional Bee Removers, and Veiseh has served on the association’s board of directors — the statewide organization that promotes professional, live bee removal across Texas. Swarm season in this part of the state runs roughly March through June, and acting quickly while bees are still clustered in the open makes any removal far simpler.
