Washington County (Maryland) Beekeepers Want to Give Them a Home!
You can help us protect and raise the local honey bee population by contacting the WCBA (Maryland) to remove a swarm from your property.
If you see a honey bee swarm, DO NOT PANIC! This is not a dangerous situation; swarming is simply the natural means of reproduction of honey bee colonies. Honey bee swarms are remarkably docile during the swarming process and almost never sting. |
Please do NOT spray the bees with pesticides or attempt to harm them in any way. Honey bees are valuable pollinators and they are necessary for our food supply. Many local beekeepers will remove them for free and give them a good home.
TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE! Do not wait to call us, as the swarm may leave on its own very soon. Contact Karie or Susan (details below) as soon as possible with the following information:
