We want to make all visitors to bees-online.co.uk aware of an issue currently affecting access to our website for some users.

What’s happening?

Some visitors using antivirus software powered by Avast may see a warning message when attempting to access our website. This warning incorrectly flags our site as potentially unsafe.

Is our website safe?

Yes — absolutely.

We take website security extremely seriously. As soon as this issue was brought to our attention, we:

• Conducted a full security audit of the website
• Removed any potential vulnerabilities
• Implemented additional security measures
• Verified the site using independent malware and security scanning tools

All checks confirm that our website is clean, secure, and safe to use.

Why are warnings still appearing?

The warning is a false positive, meaning the antivirus software has incorrectly identified a threat where none exists.

Unfortunately, once a site is flagged, it can take time for antivirus providers like Avast and other services that rely on their detection engine to review and remove the block.

This process is entirely outside of our control.

What are we doing about it?

We have:

• Submitted a review request directly to Avast
• Provided evidence that the site is clean and secure
• Requested urgent re-evaluation and removal of the warning

We are continuing to follow up with them to resolve this as quickly as possible.

What can you do?

If you trust our website and wish to proceed, you may be able to:

• Add an exception for our site in your antivirus software
• Continue to the website via your browser (if given the option)

Alternatively, you can contact us directly if you need assistance placing an order or accessing information.

Need help?

If you have any concerns or questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. We’re here to help and ensure you have a safe and smooth experience.

Thank you for your understanding

We appreciate your patience while this issue is being resolved and apologise for any inconvenience caused.
