Beekeeping & Live Honey Bee Removal

Serving Central New York

A-Line Apiaries

A-Line Apiaries is a Central New York apiary focused on honey bee stewardship, live bee removal, swarm recovery, and sustainable apiary growth.

Whenever possible, we work to relocate honey bees into managed hives rather than treat them as pests.

Honey Bee Removal Services

Swarms are temporary clusters of bees searching for a new home. When possible, we collect and relocate swarms into managed hives.

Swarm Capture

When honey bees move into a wall, soffit, roof, or other structure, a live cutout may be needed to remove the colony and comb.

Structural Cutouts

Not sure what you’re seeing? Send photos and your location so we can help determine whether live removal is the right option.
