 Bee Swarms...

  

Do you have a honey bee swarm?  Many of our members will assist in removing a honey bee swarm. Before you contact a member, please visit the following links. Most members will only capture a swarm that is readily accessible. This means that the swarm is clearly visible from the outside, can be safely reached from the ground and is not already taken up residence in a building, your house or in a "bee tree".

 

Some useful links about bee swarms you may want to check out before contacting a name listed below...
