About us

Rooted in Pretoria,
devoted to the bees.

Dean Bee Removal & Relocation is a family-run apiary and bee-rescue service based in Moreleta Park. We safely remove unwanted colonies from homes and businesses and give them a new life in managed hives — never harming a single bee.

What started as a passion for pollinators has grown into a full hive-to-jar operation: relocating swarms, raising raw honey, pollinating crops, mentoring backyard beekeepers and supplying the gear to do it all properly.

The good stuff

Why raw honey &
living bees matter

Good for your table, great for the planet. Here's what you get when bees are kept alive and honey is left raw.

Naturally rich
Raw honey keeps the natural enzymes, antioxidants and pollen that processing strips away.
A wholesome sweetener
A characterful, natural alternative to refined sugar — traditionally valued to soothe a scratchy throat.
Local & seasonal
Made from local forage, capturing the taste of Pretoria's own blooms.
Thriving ecosystems
More living bees means more flowers, better harvests and richer biodiversity for everyone.
