Anyone near Trophy Club want a swarm of honey bees.

Showed up yesterday, was hoping they would move on by now....

But no such luck.

They are out flying now that its warmed up some.

Neighbors are concerned and want them dead or gone. One suggested a flamethrower!!!

I wont harm them unless they try to get inside.

They moved from my mailbox to the side of my house.


ANY BEE KEEPERS NEAR TROPHY CLUB??

Come and get em!!!!

Got It Derek, Thx.

One of the guys there refered me to Metro Beekeepers Association.

They have a website that you enter the location and Ph number and it goes out to the local Bee Keepers

They will call you and arrange pickup if/when they are available.

Don't kill the honey bees! Very necessary (and declining) component of our food chain.

This.

The bees are so critical. I cant emphasize how important they are. If anyone is interested you can do the research but they're collapsing right now and no one's completely sure why. But everyone is sure that without them we're kind of screwed.

Glad someones gonna safely move them.

Bees have been relocated (for free). A beekeeper came and got them with a vac. Said it was a large and healthy swarm.
He estimated it at 20k bees.

He stayed around and got the stragglers... Said others would return too that been out scouting further out.

But they will go away too with time. Kinda feel sad for them that were left BEEhind.

Thanks all!!!

The websites mentioned above worked out nicely and I had several offers to come get em (for free).

Thanks Everyone!!!
