Well, razzlefratz. Was it @Kylemeinert who’s the bee guy? I thought we had a card on the front board, but that’s just for beehub.org . I went there, but there’s not a general info thing – you have to sign up and be a member.

Trying to find you a bee person…

Maybe @Josh_Melnick remembers who the local bee person is…

Based on this info

You got the right tag with Kyle, and the company he mentions might still be around…

The website is still up. 800-687-8760 is the basic number, but there are a couple of spots on the website where you can call now for emergency bee removal.

Although, it looks like it’s a paid service. It claims in several places that estimates are free. Which implies that bee removal isn’t.

Yes Kyle is a beekeeper…All colonies his company removes are relocated rather than exterminated. I have 2 backyard beehives now because I helped him remove bees.

A swarm in May
Is worth a load of hay

A swarm in June
Is worth a silver spoon

But a swarm in July
Is not worth a fly

(17th Century proverb)

Late season swarms tend to be small and don’t have time to develop a surplus before the Fall, and they may not survive the winter, even after feeding them.

As a result, late summer swarms are not particularly profitable to collect.

Yes unfortunately our bee removal is not free. I have to pay insurance licensing phones taxes etc all come at a price.
