Bee Help!

Have you discovered a bee swarm on your property?

Honeybees tend to swarm around the month of May.

The Extension Office receives many messages regarding bees and many questions about who can remove beehives.  A swarm of bees can often be easily moved. If the queen bee can be collected, most of the other bees will follow her into a new hive.

Agriculture and Natural Resource Educator, Gigi Neal, maintains a swarm list, which is organized by county, to help homeowners. Download the list here.

Visit Ohio Beekeepers Association for more information about apiary science (beekeeping).
