Logically the first thing to do would be to call for someone that knows more about them and how to handle them and not to dash off and spread them everywhere so I have to agree with the chap from the beekeeper's association.<br /><br />I well remember as a young lad helping to collect a swarm from one of our fruit trees, emptying it onto a sheet on the ground and then crawling on hands and knees through them to find the queen and move her to a new hive. Once she was there all the workers followed without problems and I never got stung.<br /> ivannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-89356271424023630492014-06-30T10:14:48.926+01:002014-06-30T10:14:48.926+01:00These people are volunteers and they do come out q...These people are volunteers and they do come out quickly because a swarm is valuable.

They are docile but a swarm is a frightening thing to be near. He dealt with it himself to protect his family. You can't blame him.<br /><br />Two trips through a car wash though. These were clearly the X-Men of bees. They would have killed us all if they had found a home and thrived.<br />Lord Tnoreply@blogger.com
