Ontario Bee Rescue
Ontario Bee Rescue is a collective of 100 plus caring beekeepers dedicated to saving the honeybees. It was established in the summer of 2013. The objective is to maintain a list of beekeepers in Ontario that are willing and able to assist in the rescue of honey bee swarms.
To maintain professionalism, only registered beekeepers are eligible. If you are a registered beekeeper and wish to be on our swarm capture list, please notify us through facebook or our website. We are working closely with OBA (Ontario Beekeepers Association) to ensure that honeybees are saved from being destroyed by exterminators and pest control companies.
If you need more information or are concerned about bees in your area contact us and a registered bee keeper will contact you for removal of swarms or honeybee colonies from homes, sheds, decks, and other man-made structures.
We also collect swarms of honeybees from tree branches, fences, vehicles etc. The collected honeybees will then be relocated to an established licensed apiary where they are able to thrive as beneficial pollinators to the local environment.
Our Goals Are:
- To provide a humane manner in which to remove honeybee hives from structures.
- Relocate the rescued honeybees to more suitable locations.
- To remain a not-for-profit organization with no fees.
If you need more information or are concerned about bees in your area please contact us. For a list of beekeepers please visit our site Ontario Bee Rescue.

Ontario Bee Rescue is a not-for-profit organization of over 100 volunteer beekeepers . We field several calls a day for bee rescues.

Ontario Bee Rescue is a collective of 100 plus caring beekeepers located all over Ontario. We are not just beekeepers, we are Bee Activists!
We couldn’t live in a world without bees — as humans, we greatly rely on them (and all pollinators) for our food production. That’s why the work that Ontario Bee Rescue does is so important. We are dedicated to saving the honeybees and the humane removal and relocation of honeybee swarms and established honeybee colonies.
