Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are essential pollinators and are protected wherever practical. Every spring we get dozens of Campbelltown call-outs for swarms in trees, cavities, eaves and chimneys — a natural process as an old queen leaves an established hive to form a new colony.
Our approach is relocation-first. Wherever a swarm or established hive can be safely accessed, we use a local Campbelltown beekeeper to relocate the colony intact. Where safe relocation is not possible — usually deep wall cavities, ceiling voids or immediate risk near children — we use APVMA-registered treatments and follow up with cavity clean-out to prevent wax and honey rot.

Species & facts
Fuzzy, golden-brown, single-sting insect — a protected pollinator.
Peak swarming season is September–December across the Macarthur region.
Established cavity hives can weigh 20kg+ and contain 30,000+ bees — never DIY.
Tetragonula carbonaria — small black stingless bees, harmless and beneficial, never removed.
Not established in Australia, but any unusually aggressive swarm is reported to DPI.
Around 3% of the Australian population has a bee-sting allergy — schools, childcare and aged-care sites are treated as priority.
Every Bee Control job we book across Campbelltown starts with the customer noticing one of these signs. If you see any of them, book an inspection — early treatment is always cheaper.

Accessible swarms and hives are relocated intact by a local Campbelltown beekeeper.
Where relocation is unsafe (wall voids near children, roof cavities), APVMA-registered treatment is used.
Post-treatment removal of wax and honey to prevent rot, staining and secondary pest infestation.
Written recommendation on sealing weep-holes and entry points to prevent recolonisation.
