HONEYBEE SWARMS

Honey bees swarm in Southwestern Pa. beginning in May and occasionally as late as September. Honey bees swarm to look for a new hive location.  They do not live in the ground.  If you have a nest in the ground it is not Honey Bees.

Some beekeepers will collect swarms if the location and size of the swarm meets their needs. Persons requesting swarm removal should consider the beekeepers travel expenses and time involved in the collection.
