Swarm Removal

Please note we are not performing swarm removals in the 2021-2022 season

Do you have a swarm of bees in your garden or somewhere on your property. If so, give us a call and we’ll remove the bees and hive in a safe and bee friendly way. Our primary concern, apart from your safety, is the welfare of the bees and their safe removal from your property.

Group workshops / One on One Mentoring

If you’re a New-bee and would like to setup your own hive at home, Surfcoast Honey offers two one hour introductory sessions to help you get up and going. These sessions are one on one offering direct and personal advice on beekeeping. We also run group workshop sessions that cover everything you need to know to get up and running as a beekeeper. You’ll learn the legal as well as the practical and seasonal aspects that will give you a good foundation to becoming an experienced confident beekeeper.

Pollination

Surfcoast Honey will place hives on your property to help with pollination and general blossom promotion and health. Statistics show that hives on your property will increase blossom growth by up to 70%, so if you have a vegetable plot, an orchard or flower plantation contact us and we’ll place hives on your property during the Spring and early Summer to promote pollination and blossom health.

Educational

Surfcoast Honey provides group sessions designed to educate children and adults on the importance of and the many benefits bees can bring to our environment. So if you are a teacher, at either a kindergarten or school, or a leader of a community group or center and would like your class or group to learn about bees let us know. Our sessions are tailored around the needs and educational level and interest of the students or group participants.

Queen replacement

If its time to replace your queen because she is near the end of her productive life or if your hive has become queen less Surfcoast Honey will replace or install a virgin queen which will extend the productivity of your hive a further 3-5 years. Contact us if you’re unsure of your queens status and we’ll help you out.

Hive relocation

Surfcoast Honey also offer a hive relocation service should the need arise. We will seal and transport your hive to a desired location or to one of our apiaries for safe keeping until a new location has been organized.

Contact us now if you would like to talk further about any of the above options.
