Buzzing Bees Where They Shoudn't Be?
We love bees. We really do. But sometimes… they move in a little too close for comfort.
Bees are vital to our ecosystem, but if they decide your loft, chimney or wall cavity is the perfect place to build a new hive, things can get a bit… stingy.
At KV Pest Control, we offer safe, ethical, and professional Bee Pest Control across Portsmouth, Southsea, Havant, Waterlooville and surrounding areas. Let us help you handle bee invasions with care, for you and for the bees.

The Busy World of Bees
There are many different types of bees in the UK, but the two you’re most likely to meet face-to-face (or, hopefully, not face-to-stinger) are:
Honey Bees
Bumble Bees
- Famous for producing honey and beeswax
- Live in large colonies with thousands of workers and a single queen
- Highly valued as pollinators for crops and gardens
- Often nest in cavities, walls, chimneys and roof spaces if they can find access
- Larger and rounder than honey bees
- Covered in fuzzy hairs
- Excellent pollinators of flowers and fruit crops
- Tend to nest underground, in compost heaps, sheds or quiet corners of gardens
- Less aggressive than wasps, but will sting if threatened
EXCELLENT Based on 10 reviews Posted on Jordan SmithTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kevin and Graeme were exceptional. No investigation too small or big. They looked everywhere for ingress and egress holes for rats and mice, both inside and outside the house. They identified the cause and filled the holes, laid bait, and helped get rid of the pests. They also removed a family of squirrels from the loft. After a few weeks, it was all clear and they returned to strip the loft of old insulation, thoroughly cleaned and pest-proofed the loft for new insulation and loft boards. I could not recommend them highly enough. They have great customer service before during and after they visit.Posted on heather rookTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
