Bees are of immense value to our planet’s ecosystem and are responsible for pollinating large amounts of our food. Honeybees are recognised as beneficial insects and rarely classed as pests. However, they sometimes take up residence in places of inconvenience which can cause alarm and distress. They may sting people, but generally only when provoked.
In 2017 The Hampshire Bee Company decided to stop treating established colonies of bees with pesticides. We have worked hard to develop the professional skills required to remove bees safely physically and rehome the established colonies in the Hampshire countryside.
After the honey bee removal process the bees are transferred to our rescue beehives, situated in and around Old Alresford in Hampshire. Our precious bees collect pollen from a mixture of wildflowers, woodland, hedgerows, rural farmland, and beautiful fruit orchards. This provides a variety of seasonal honeys in the spring and the summer with flavour and colour ranging from fruity and light to rich, amber, and dark.
