    In Orange County, CA, common bees include European honeybees, Africanized honeybees, bumble bees, carpenter bees, and solitary bees. European honeybees are gentle and kept for honey, while Africanized honeybees are aggressive and quick to swarm. Bumble bees are large, fuzzy pollinators, and carpenter bees resemble them but can damage wood. Solitary bees live alone and are less aggressive. We offer professional bee removal throughout Southern California. Call us for fast, reliable service.
