The Honey Bee Swarming Season is from May to July. Help is at hand in Hollingdean

Honey Bee swarming season May to July, Richard, Hollindean

Contact Richard to collect a swarm in Hollingdean

Richard is a local bee keeper who is knowledgeable and happy to help if a swarm of bees comes your way. He can collect any swarm of bees you may find in the area. During the warm, sunny days in spring and early summer, typically between May and July bees may swarm when their hive becomes overcrowded. For more information click here.

British Bee Keepers Association says: “Most honey bee swarms are not aggressive but please do keep away and leave them alone. Honey bee swarming is natural and the bees are just looking for a new home.”

Contact Richard on 07855 257 858 for all help and advice on bee keeping.
