Quick Answer: Bee season in San Diego typically starts in early spring (March) and peaks through summer. This is when swarms form and new hives are established.
When Bee Activity Increases
As temperatures rise, colonies grow and split. This creates swarms searching for new nesting locations.
Common Signs During Bee Season
- Sudden increase in bee activity
- Bees gathering around structures
- Swarming clusters on trees or homes
Where Bees Usually Nest
- Walls and attics
- Roof eaves
- Vents and chimneys
What Homeowners Should Do
Early detection is key. Addressing bee activity before a hive forms can prevent costly repairs later.
