Capture of
Honey Bees
Bee Swarms -
Honey bees
normally divide their colony in the Spring and you may find a swarm clinging
to a tree or bush in your yard. We capture the swarm with a bee vacuum and
give them a new home in our apiary. No poisons are used and we do not harm
the bees.
There is
NO CHARGE for this service within 10 miles of our base in Ravenna, so
give us a call.

The term "bee" is
reserved
for bumble bees and the
common honey bee, "Apis
mellifera".
Honey bees
(Apis mellifera) are pollinators of one third the food you eat, so they are
protected by federal law. If you find a swarm, DON'T KILL THEM. Call us or
another beekeeper (see our
Related Links page).
