A Better Approach to Bee Control in Louisville

Bee infestations rarely start out as obvious. A few buzzing visitors might become a full hive before anyone realizes what’s happening. In residential areas like the Highlands or Clifton, flowering gardens and historic architecture offer countless entry points and nesting spots. In commercial spaces—especially restaurants or outdoor venues downtown—open trash bins, sugary spills, or flowering plants can attract swarms that disrupt operations and put guests at risk.

Tailor Made Pest and Wildlife focuses on more than just removal. Our process starts with a property-specific assessment, and from there, we develop an action plan based on the type of bees, their location, and your long-term goals. Whether you’re dealing with carpenter bees drilling into old wooden decks or a rapidly growing hive near a customer entrance, we’re prepared with tools, training, and the local knowledge it takes to get results.

Why Property Owners Across Louisville Choose Us

When bee activity threatens comfort, safety, or business continuity, there’s no time to wait—and no room for a one-size-fits-all solution. That’s why people turn to Tailor Made Pest and Wildlife. Our team is built on expertise, but it’s our values and consistency that drive long-term client relationships.

  • Family-Owned, Louisville-Based: We treat your home or workplace with the same care and urgency we’d bring to our own. Every job is personal.
  • Environmentally Responsible: We use products and practices designed to minimize environmental impact while effectively addressing infestations.
  • Rapid Response: In many cases, we can schedule same-day or next-day service to resolve urgent bee issues before they escalate.
  • Free Re-Treatments: If bees return between scheduled visits, we come back at no charge. Your peace of mind is our priority.

Inside Our Bee Removal Process

Every inspection begins with a thorough walkthrough of your property. We identify the specific bee species involved, pinpoint nesting sites, and evaluate any factors contributing to the infestation—everything from landscaping choices to structural vulnerabilities. From there, we apply targeted methods to remove bees safely and effectively. But our work doesn’t end with removal. We seal up entry points, offer landscaping and structural modification recommendations, and help you understand how to prevent future infestations.

We’re equipped to handle all common species in the Louisville area, including carpenter bees, honeybees, bumblebees, and even more aggressive species like Africanized hybrids. If relocation is possible and appropriate, we partner with local beekeepers to rehome honeybees. When extermination is required, we follow all state and federal guidelines to ensure safety and compliance.

Tailored Solutions for Louisville’s Unique Challenges

Louisville’s diverse architecture and natural surroundings make it an ideal place for bees to thrive—but not always in ways that align with your goals. From the rolling hills of Cherokee Park to the alleys of Old Louisville, each neighborhood presents its own challenges when it comes to pest management. We tailor every service to reflect the realities of your specific property and surroundings.

Whether you own a shotgun house in Germantown, manage a warehouse in Butchertown, or run a café in NuLu, you’ll benefit from our familiarity with local plant species, seasonal bee behavior, and zoning regulations. Our services are compliant with all applicable ordinances, and we remain up to date on Kentucky’s guidelines for pollinator management.

 

Our Home Pest Control Process

  • Inspection
    Our first step in the pest control process is to visit your home to talk with you about what you’ve seen for pest activity around your property and to find out what you want to gain from our services. We’ll then inspect inside and outside your house to pinpoint any infestation, entry points, conducive conditions, and other potential issues. We’ll recommend a treatment plan based on our findings.
  • Treatments

    Our treatments are designed to get rid of the pests that are already active in your house, but that’s not our final goal. We also provide the services necessary to protect your house from new pest problems. Depending on the pest control plan you choose for your property, we’ll provide interior and exterior treatments to get and keep your house fully pest-free.

  • Follow-Up

    All of our pest-free bundle plans include 12 yearly service visits. We’ll come to your home each month to re-treat it and make sure it is fully protected from pests. If you choose one of our other pest control plans, you may receive bi-monthly services. Each of our plans also includes free re-services between scheduled visits if pests show up unexpectedly.

FAQ: Bee Extermination Services in Louisville, KY

1. What’s the difference between bee extermination and bee removal in Louisville?
Extermination involves eliminating the bee population using approved methods, while removal may include relocation. In Louisville, we always assess whether safe relocation is possible—especially for honeybees—before resorting to extermination.

2. Are certain neighborhoods in Louisville more prone to bee infestations?
Yes. Areas with older wooden structures like Clifton or Crescent Hill are especially vulnerable to carpenter bees. Meanwhile, places with dense gardens and landscaping, such as the Highlands, often attract honeybees and bumblebees.

3. Is it legal to exterminate bees in Louisville?
Yes, but certain species like honeybees may be protected. We comply with all local and state guidelines, ensuring removal or extermination methods are lawful and environmentally responsible.

4. What attracts bees to downtown businesses?
Flowering planters, sugary beverages, and food waste are major attractants. Rooftop patios and open-air dining areas also tend to draw in bees during warmer months.

5. Do you offer emergency bee control services?
Yes. For active hives in high-traffic areas or when stings are a risk, we prioritize same-day service throughout Louisville and surrounding communities.

6. How can I protect my garden in Highlands without attracting bees near my house?
Use landscaping strategies that create a buffer zone. Keep flowering plants away from doors and windows, and avoid placing feeders or birdbaths close to entry points.

7. Can I remove a bee nest on my own?
DIY removal is risky and often ineffective. Bee behavior varies by species, and improper handling can lead to swarming or stings. Always consult a professional for safe, effective results.

8. How often should commercial properties schedule inspections?
For businesses with outdoor operations—such as breweries or restaurants—seasonal inspections (spring through early fall) are recommended to identify early signs of bee activity.

9. What if bees return after your service?
If you notice renewed activity between scheduled visits, we’ll return to your property at no cost to reassess and treat the issue.

10. Are your products safe for pets and children?
Yes. All products we use meet stringent safety standards and are applied with careful attention to households and businesses with children or animals present.
