YOUR HOME FOR BEE, WASP, AND HORNET REMOVAL AND LIVE HONEY BEE RELOCATION
Honey bees are disappearing. Therefore, we capture the swarms live and relocate them to our apiary. This is very important since honey bees are the primary pollinator of our food supply.
New colonies are established not by solitary queens, as in most bees, but by groups known as "swarms", which consist of a mated queen and a large group of worker bees. This group moves in mass exodus from the original site to a new nest site that has been scouted by worker bees beforehand. Once they arrive, they immediately construct a new wax comb and begin to raise new worker brood.
Honey bees live in colonies where the workers will sting intruders as a form of defense, and alarmed bees will release a pheromone that stimulates the attack response in other bees
