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.”
