Davie Fire Department Offers Bee Removal Services to Residents

DAVIE – The Davie Fire Department is reminding residents that they offer a valuable service for dealing with unwanted bee swarms and hives on private property. This initiative helps ensure public safety while also protecting the vital bee population.

When a bee swarm or hive is reported, the Davie Fire Department dispatches trained personnel to assess the situation. Their primary goal is to safely remove the bees without harming them, whenever possible. This often involves contacting local beekeepers who can relocate the bees to a more suitable environment, where they can continue their essential work of pollination.

Residents encountering a bee swarm or hive on their property are encouraged to contact the Davie Fire Department's non-emergency line. It is important to avoid attempting to remove the bees independently, as this can be dangerous and may harm the bees. The department emphasizes that their service is focused on safe removal and relocation, contributing to both community well-being and environmental health.

This service is particularly important as Davie continues to develop, bringing homes and businesses into closer proximity with natural habitats like the nearby Everglades. By providing professional bee removal, the Fire Department helps prevent potential stings and allergic reactions, especially for children and those with sensitivities, while also supporting the local ecosystem.

For assistance with bee removal, Davie residents should call the Davie Fire Department's non-emergency number. Please do not call 911 unless there is an immediate emergency or threat to life.
