Report
We called Nicole with a bee hive issue in our back yard. They sent a couple of guys who quoted us $800 to complete the job and we agreed. They began drilling in the rocks the hive is located in and about 30 minutes in they said they have to return tomorrow with their boss to complete the job while leaving holes and drill marks in our rocks. Since then we haven't heard from them again. We called, left messages and nothing! Don't use this service, they are unreliable, unprofessional and untrustworthy. Stay away!

The company representative was supposed to come 2-3 PM. He called at 4:30 and told me that he is at the wrong address and it's too late for him to come. He said that his office will call back to reschedule, but they never did. Very unprofessional!

It started out good. I had a great conversation with Nicole Palladino, then all of a sudden it turned south real fast after they came out to do half of the job. They got paid more than agreed and then she refused to come back and finish the job she agreed upon, out AFTER she had me go buy tons of equipment to keep the second swarm. I went through all the trouble of going and buying everything she told me to get and then she never returned calls, messages, and said she was too busy and she'd get back with me. Then she refused to respond and didn't complete the job. Very rude and unprofessional and couldn't just keep her word, nor respond. I'm highly disappointed in her service.

I called them for a bee infestation in my chimney. They came out on time and safely re-homed the bees to a local sanctuary. I was fascinated by the professionalism of Nicole, the technition on-site. The flat rate price was great, I appreciate that there were no hidden fees. (I called several companies for quotes prior to hiring them) Would recommend, great experience!

Great folks! Nicole, Owner responded quick, sent tech out next morning. Matt, Nicest, conscientious young knowledgable man! Described process, promised to save the queen which he would move with hive to new location. Live removal and relocation, THAT was important to us. Thank You!

I called on Monday for a quote, which they gave me over the phone. During the week I got a few more quotes and decided on Bee Catchers. I called them back on Friday to give them my decision and schedule the removal. They offered to move their schedule around and do the work that same day. Within hours the job was done. The workers were very professional and very personable at the same time. I highly recommend Bee Catchers services.
