Frequently asked questions

Urban beekeeping in Paris is regulated by local laws, which require beekeepers to register their hives with the city authorities and follow specific guidelines regarding hive placement and maintenance. These regulations ensure public safety and promote harmonious coexistence with neighbors. Alvéole’s professional beekeepers ensure full compliance with all local regulations in Paris.

Urban beekeeping is safe and we have many successful bee programs in Paris. At Alvéole, we work with a special breed of Italian honey bees selected for their docility. Honey bees are gentle creatures who (almost) never sting without reason. Unless they feel threatened, bees have no motivation to sting – in fact, once they sting, they lose their stinger along with a part of their abdomen, and die.

Wild bees are as peaceful as honey bees. They technically can sting, but they don’t. Docile and nonterritorial, they’re extremely gentle. Unless they’re being touched, they simply go about their business.

Alvéole’s urban beekeeping program aligns with Paris’s sustainability efforts, including initiatives to promote green spaces, biodiversity, and environmental education. Alvéole’s approach to beekeeping contributing to Paris’s broader goals of creating a more sustainable urban environment.
