Thermal Cavity Mapping
Precision Cut-in
Brood & Honey Clearing
Exclusion & Sealing
Acoustic detection and infrared sensors isolate the brood cluster within wall bays before opening finishes.
Drywall or siding is severed cleanly along framing centers to simplify reconstruction and contain airborne debris.
Every ounce of brood comb and honey stores is lifted free, eliminating subsequent structural rot or pest invasion.
Stud bays are sanitized, scent-neutralized, insulated, and capped with copper mesh barriers to block future scent trails.
Field methods for intact recovery
Stud bay clear-out
Residual honey left behind framing ferments and attracts destructive pests. We scrape studs to bare grain, washing the cavity with natural enzyme solutions to neutralize pheromones.
Low-draw vacuum transfer
Specialized capture chambers utilize calibrated low-draw airflow, cushioning nurse bees and the queen into transfer boxes without wing damage or compression mortality.
Non-destructive monitoring
Before any saw contacts wood or plaster, surface acoustics and thermal diagnostics identify exact cluster boundaries, preventing unnecessary structural incisions.
Assess your building cavity
Submit photos of the exterior access point, approximate wall dimensions, and any visible flight activity for an initial evaluation.
