Bee Relocation Services in Northampton
At Pestforce Pest Control Northampton, we understand the importance of bees to our ecosystem.
That's why we offer professional bee relocation services to safely remove bees from your property without harming them.
Honey Bees in Your Home
If you've noticed bees in your home, it's crucial to act swiftly.
Our bee relocation process begins with a thorough site survey to assess the situation.
We use thermal imaging cameras to detect heat from bee colonies, which helps us estimate the scope of removal required. In some cases, bees may have been present for a long time, leading to old comb that can't be detected thermally.
We recommend complete comb removal to prevent future bee infestations.
Our Bee Relocation Process
- Site Survey: A detailed inspection to determine the bees' location and the extent of the infestation.
- Quotation: We provide a competitive quote, factoring in any necessary access equipment, property alterations, and bee removal.
- Removal Preparation: If required, we arrange for safe access equipment and prepare for the safe removal of the bee colony.
- Bee Removal: Our experts carefully remove the bees, their comb, and stores, ensuring no remnants are left behind to attract new colonies.
- Property Restoration: We meticulously restore your property to its original state, employing specialists for delicate tasks, particularly in listed buildings.
- Bee Proofing: Post-removal, we bee-proof the affected areas to prevent future infestations, integrating this step into the building work.
- Relocation: The bees are relocated to a nucleus to rebuild their stores, eventually transitioning to a national hive to continue their vital role in pollination.
Why Remove Bees?
- Structural Integrity: Untreated bee infestations can compromise your property's structural integrity.
- Secondary Pests: Left alone, bees can attract moths, flies, and other pests.
- Safety Concerns: Bee stings can pose risks to children, pets, and those with allergies.
Ethical Considerations
While bees aren't legally protected yet, we prioritize humane removal methods.
In certain scenarios, such as dealing with Africanised honey bees, more drastic measures may be necessary due to their aggressive nature.
Community Contribution
We take pride in our bee conservation efforts.
With 27 hives and 19 nucleus colonies, we've saved over 410,000 bees that might have otherwise been exterminated.
As a token of gratitude, clients who have undergone bee removal receive a jar of honey produced by the relocated bees.
Swarm Removal
This year has seen an unprecedented number of honey bee swarms.
While swarms can be alarming, we offer free swarm removal services, ensuring public safety and bee conservation.
In a year, these swarms can become valuable colonies, contributing further to our environmental stewardship.
For professional bee relocation services that prioritize safety, property integrity, and ethical treatment of bees, contact Pestforce Pest Control Northampton.
Together, we can safeguard both your home and our bee populations.
Expert Woodworm Treatment in Northampton
Protect Your Property from Wood-Boring Insects
At Pestforce Northampton, we understand the critical nature of woodworm infestations and the potential structural jeopardy they pose to your property.
Our expert woodworm treatment services are designed to safeguard your home or business from the silent degradation caused by these insidious pests.
Identifying Woodworm Damage
Woodworm, the common name for larvae of wood-boring beetles, typically leaves behind a distinct sign of infestation: small, round holes in wooden structures.
These are often discovered in areas such as roof joists, floorboards, antique furniture, and other aged wooden items.
The presence of fine, powdery dust around these holes indicates active woodworm, signalling the urgent need for professional intervention.
Universal Wood-Boring Insecticide: Our Solution
Our team at Pestforce Northampton employs a universal wood-boring insecticide, renowned for its efficacy against a broad spectrum of woodworm species.
This treatment is meticulously applied to ensure thorough coverage, eliminating the threat of future infestations and providing long-term protection for your property.
Rigorous Application Process
When treating woodworm, precision is paramount. Our rigorous application process ensures no nook is overlooked.
A preliminary patch test is performed to ascertain the compatibility of our treatment with your wood, ensuring the safety and integrity of your property.
Slight Wood Darkening: A Small Price for Peace of Mind
It is important to note that woodworm treatment may result in a slight darkening of the wood. This minor aesthetic change is a small price to pay for the peace of mind and structural integrity that our treatment provides.
Preventative Woodworm Treatment
Why wait for damage to occur? Pestforce Northampton advocates for proactive measures.
Treating woodworm as a preventative step is a wise investment, circumventing potential structural damage and preserving the longevity of your woodwork.
Don’t let woodworm compromise your property. Contact Pestforce Northampton today to arrange a consultation and secure your property's future.
With our expert treatment, you can rest assured that your property is in safe hands.

Bee relocation in Northampton - June 2023
We are getting a lot of calls for bees. This time of year, bees swarm when a Queen is mated, if they are removed straight away before comb is built it is an easier task with certain techniques. If they settle and build comb it is more technical to remove them as the comb will need removing to stop bees coming back. We never kill bees as we keep them ourselves all our hives are from rescues from chimneys, walls, roofs, etc. So, if you need help, please call us we will sort the issue for you.

On inspection there was a lot of branches in separate drays a lot of damage to the roof space. 4 fenn traps where placed with lots of nuttela. We returned today and 3 had been caught a good start to the job. It shows that it's a easy problem to fix but if left they can cause such serious damage so it's allways best to call in a pest control company.
Rats in Northampton - August 2019
Pestforce pest control Northampton was called to assit a customer's rat problem. The customer had lived at the premises their entire life so when we had the call regarding rats running around rife it baffled us to think where the root of the problem may lie. Upon visit we came across a plague of rats and it seemed to have come from ground work a neighbour was doing but digging further it turned out to be leading from the drain so we'd successfully fitted a rat wall with rodenticide. Another satisified customer.
